Pulling up should be easy....then ship to me!

Heck, sell it on eBay!....

Actually, it only grows here in the shade, so is that where the problem is?

Shocked

Yeah, I'd love some too....IF it is the giant real one. I got some at a garage sale over 5 yrs ago and while it is still coming up well, it is NOT spreading for me.

I have tons of the false Solomon Seal, tho.

The real one is valuable and hard to find.
It has hanging light yellow bell flowers and grows to about 2.5ft or higher.

The false one is about 12 in and has flowers only at the tip that turn into red berries. The false one spreads like crazy!

Oh, boo hoo....

Did you ever get that jewel weed seed to germinate?
How's it doing, Alffe?

No sign of it yet Mrs.D. We had an unusually long cold winter...I'm still looking for a sign but I would have thought it'd be up by now.

Wink

The reason I ask is that I have some volunteers coming up in my petunia pots from vacation last year. They are about an inch high now. I only have 4 though.

Say, Alffe...take a look at the link I put up today for the eagles.
It is a funny video you might enjoy.
