I had been blessed also with some seeds last year and I planted them in a pot, probably much too close together. I didn't have any idea what I was planting and I was really wanting to have seeds of my own.
At any rate, the plants grew and grew but never did make seeds. So I wanted to try again. Couldn't find any seeds, well, actually I had several offers from DG folks, but I found an ebay auction for 200 seeds from Hawaii and won that. So now I am set for next year. I am going to try things a little differently, just haven't decided exactly what I will do.
I cut my stalks down and drug the big pot into the garage. Would you believe it is sending up sprouts again. LOL
In the spring, I will pull this totally root bound thing out of the pot and chop it apart and I should be ahead of the game, right?
Thank you for your comments. I really didn't know what I was planting either when I started out last season - I was pleasantly surprised. I hope you get seeds next time around. It is so interesting to watch them emerge.
That's a good idea you have of over-wintering in the garage. I didn't think to try that. At first, I was going to over-winter mine inside. Then, after talking with Patricia (the jewelry designer) I decided to just replant seeds in the Spring; she told me that is what she does.
It was nice to hear from you,
Good luck with your plants :)
