Thank you 🙏🏻 😉 @RedFuchsia

Love teasel

Hey @telswirld you've inspired me to grow teasel this year 😀 Just one question, did your lower leaves get a bit mildewy? Mine have, just thinking do I give them more airflow next year.

Hi G, yay! 😄 I haven’t had that problem 🤔 (yet) mine are quite close to other plants, I tend to chop off leaves that are shading shorter plants but no mildew. Did you sow them straight into the ground or transplant the seedlings? @gardengimp

Thanks @telswirld 😀 I've got 3 transplanted seedlings spaced sensibly, or maybe not as sensible as I thought. They're in a new section of border near a wall, not much else near them. I plan on guerilla gardening with the seeds - my neighbour's unkempt dandelion infested lawns need jazzing up a bit! 🙊

You definitely won’t need to grow seedlings for next year they seed easily 🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱🌱 & grow stronger just pluck out the ones that are in the wrong places. You’re neighbour will love his new teasel forest 🤩😄 @gardengimp

😂😂 Thanks for your help @telswirld I'll keep that in mind👍☺
