Update on my mondo grass seeds. 15 come through now 🤗

I’ve given them another try Dave 🤞

@joanboston Good luck joan .

@joanboston if you would like a clump send me your details sue@ebm.co.uk. Just waiting for warmer weather to send some out 😍

That’s very kind of you Sue, I have quite a bit of it, but love the challenge of growing plants from seed especially seed from my own plants @suerichards

Still waiting for any signs of mine 🙄🤞

@pelly be patient jane they'll come 🤗

I hope so, I can’t remember how far behind you I was 🤔

#signsoflife after a 3 month wait, its looking hopeful 😁 my first attempt at growing from seed, so quite exciting. Hope its not a weed 😂

Brilliant! I remember you sowing these 👍😊

@anges 😁😁😁 i hope they do ok, i sowed 50, ive got 3 up to now 🤣

Good luck!! 🍀🖤🍀

Well done Dave 👏👏👏 mine aren’t sprouting yet 🤔😢

I would take that as a strike rate. Well done!

Ooh fab! Might have a go myself if yours do well. I have 4 plants but would love more 👏👏😁

@hayleyaj if i can do it hayley, anyone can 😂

Can I ask Dave, did you remove a seed from inside the berry? Or did you bury the whole berry?

I’m game! I’ll watch yours first! Might cheat with mine first and divide! 🤣🤣

@joanboston i popped the seed out joan, and soaked it for a couple of days before planting it. Ive just kept them damp with a water spray, and waited. Its taken 3 months before anything.

👍🏼 spot on Dave...🌱🌱

This looks good with a bit of light on it 🤗

I've no idea about this but does it look like this all year round?? Sorry if that's a daft question 😀

@anges it does ange yes. The new leaves a green, then turn black. Im just trying to grow some from seed 😏

Oh thanks Dave, that's good to know. I'd love it with something bright pink! 💓💓💓Are they the ones that take a few months to germinate that you posted the other day?

I collected some seeds today Dave 👍👍

@anges yes ange, ive got them soaking now, ready for sowing tomorrow 🤞

@pelly @davewrightjoinerygooglemail.co I’ve never managed to grow this from seed, but it spreads nicely so just pot up the little plants that run off the main ones

@joanboston thanks for the tip, I’ll look out for that 👍👍

@joanboston thanks for the tip joan, im not expecting any success but keen to give it a go.

Absolutely Dave, good luck😀
#grownfromseed slowly coming along
Brilliant!
Excellent Dave!
👍👍👍
That's brilliant, still no sign of mine 🤔
Yeh 👍
It’s doing well Dave 👏👏
