Today marks the beginning of the second full week of Spring in the northern hemisphere, even if some of us are stuck in second winter. Share your garden goals, projects, challenges, and successes for this growing season; share your tips, tricks, and garden hacks, or anything else you’d like. Let’s all help each other grow something beautiful together!
If folks are into it, I’d like to make this a weekly thread for everyone to share updates and assistance as the year progresses. Please let me know if that’s something you’d all like.
The seeds may take more than 1 winter to germinate, even coming from prairie moon (love them!), just FYI. Our first fall in our house I seeded an area with some native flowers. It took 2 springs before some of them came up and others didn’t show until the 3rd spring.
I am trying to temper my expectations because I know it might take a while. I’m just so excited. We’re pulling up some garden barrier this spring and going to be putting down wild ginger. I want to put down tons of types to see what comes up. I know there are tons of beautiful ones that take multiple years to germinate.
I’m with you - I have a few perennials we’re attempting to grow from seed that need cold/warm/cold stratification to germinate and it’s hard not to be excited for when they finally start popping
Its nice to have something that takes a few years to finish and becoming fully beautiful but its hard to wait. Its been a long winter
