| Neutral | ladygardener1 | On Jul 29, 2008, ladygardener1 from Near Lake Erie, NW, PA (Zone 5a) wrote: Started plants from seed late winter under lights, they took a long time to germinate. The leaf stems are very crisp like crisp celery with out the strings and have a tendency to break when handling. Unless this really shows off before frost it will not be on my priority list next season. | | Positive | uneasyjd | On Apr 6, 2007, uneasyjd from Hemmet, Denmark (Zone 7b) wrote: One of the backbones of our 'bright' border. Self-seeds reliably, but not troublesome. (The seedlings are easily recognizable.) One of the very first things to flower. Incredibly useful. | | Neutral | berrygirl | On Mar 5, 2007, berrygirl from Braselton, GA (Zone 7b) wrote: Am planning on growing this year- will report back the results. I have read it does well in cooler areas so my GA summer might not be to its liking- lol!
There are reportedly17 (!) known species of this California native that grow near vernal ponds(seasonally flooded depressions). | | Positive | KatyMac | On Feb 4, 2006, KatyMac from So. Puget Sound, WA (Zone 8b) wrote: This plant comes up when others are dying back in the fall, stays green all winter and blooms in the spring then politely dies back when the mainstays are coming up and flowering. It's a joy in my garden. | | Neutral | spklatt | On Nov 23, 2004, spklatt from Ottawa, ON (Zone 5a) wrote: The poached egg plant attracts to hoverflies, which help control aphids. It also self-seeds freely after flowering. | | Neutral | talinum | On Nov 9, 2001, talinum from Kearney, NE (Zone 5a) wrote: This is a spreading plant, 1' tall covered in fragrant, cup-shaped flowers that are yellow, deeply edged with a white border. Use in rock gardens, at the front of a border or edging a path.
