WT glad to hear you've some germinated already, mine are doing fine too despite the awful rain. Chuckels chuck some in now they'll germinate in no time and are completely hardy, if you do it now you should have a great display next year.  As for the ones you already have, they can last another year but they most likely won't give as much of a display. They do better sown from fresh I think. |

Thanks LNG I always have a dilema about sowing things now  I have hols coming up in a few weeks and it's always a pain if you have young seedlings for someone  to look after. I'm hoping some of the spent stems I chopped off in the borders a while back will have naturally scattered a few seeds for me. I have just dead headed my pot grown ones and managed to get a few seeds and I have some left from my original packet of seeds which I'll sow early next year |
