angelblossom angelblossom A Gnome's Best Friend Garden Helper Registered: 10/02/05 Posts: 16808 Loc: Grandprairie,Texas	Thanks Jiffy! I've read up on them . They self seed. To extend blooming time ~ deadhead In the heat of the summer they will stop blooming and begin again when it gets cooler in the fall. Sooooooo I will dead head every other one, and start collecting seeds,, and let seeds fall on their own,, Hopefully I will have them again and again . I planted them with a mixture of home compost, rich potting soil, and humus/ manure mixture, all well mixed within natural ground soil,, and watered in with super thrive. In a week I will give them a feeding of bloom burst. _________________________ No service done for others is ever insignificant.

JunieGirl JunieGirl Frogger Garden Helper Registered: 10/13/06 Posts: 11037 Loc: Worden, Illinois	hi--I am looking for the white soprano--found a white one at wal-mart but didn't buy it as it was fairly tall. I think the white soprano is more 'compact' is that right??/ I have the crescendo orange & the compact purple _________________________ Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain!!

plants 'n pots plants 'n pots Purl One Garden Helper Registered: 11/12/03 Posts: 23780 Loc: Rockland County, NY	Diane and Sheri... OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! PRETTY!!! My friend, Myrna, went to visit her sister on Saturday after we went to the perennial nursery in the morning. She has found a terrific nursery down there in NJ, and this was her second trip. I had asked her to get some purple osteos for me - she got 12 small pots for $15 - not bad!!! The small ones I bought here were $3 each. She gave them to me today, but the boss was there this last time and charged her $20 for the same 12 plants, so that's what I paid - not bad really - still much cheaper than what I paid. They are going to be taller than the ones I have already - I might plant them over at my mom's - I always plant her rock garden and others for Mother's Day. _________________________ ............... stated by a very wise friend...
