I tried to move it once and it just keeps sprouting up in the place I moved it from as well as where I moved it too. But you trump me on erythroniums :D<br /><br />Su - net the PSB! Now! Before it's too late! (I am a PSB fiend)<br /><br />LPG & Keewee - thanks :D<br /><br />Christine - you make me feel much better. But there are things on my list I haven't confessed to: shame is definitely required.<br /><br />Elizabeth: delphiniums is one of the things I didn't confess to. Ligularia are entirely out: as are primulas, so I share the moist soil thing with you. And morning glory...

I can't grow all sorts:delphiniums, roses except the tough old rugosa types, trilliums (of course), and basically anything which needs moist soil, ligularia and so on. I have failed with morning glory for the last couple of years but might have a go at sowing it much later as you suggest.Elizabeth Musgravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473705107636868753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33596622.post-63205769447829224102010-04-03T16:22:58.373+01:002010-04-03T16:22:58.373+01:00She is a little beauty.She is a little beauty.Jennifer AKA keeweehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16107693230744190952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33596622.post-45249025504904412352010-04-03T07:44:27.559+01:002010-04-03T07:44:27.559+01:00My kill list is so long I could post about it once...My kill list is so long I could post about it once a month for the rest of my life.

I've tried it in 4 different gardens, with varying soils but no luck :-(<br />I don't want to try trilliums, as it would just be too expensive a failure.<br />I do however have Erythronium ;-)HappyMouffetardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09157145094611234176noreply@blogger.com
