First purple Pardancanda bloom

Post by Patrushka »

This is the first bloom on one of the purple Pardancanda seedlings I grew from seeds that John sent me. :D They were wintersown in February of 2006. Another one is budding and I can't wait to see what it will look like.

Thanks Paul, Spider and LucyGoose. :D

:lol: LucyGoose. I knew that I planted five or six in one spot. Later, I was surprised to find five in another bed. Then I found one on the South side of the house along with my daylily seedlings that I thought I had planted somewhere else and hadn't made it through the winter.

Oh, I'll bet you do LG. I wintersowed the other half of my purple seeds this year too. I have 14 seedlings to get planted. I think I'll write down where I plant them in my spiral. :lol:
