I've been growing mgs for the past 3 seasons and consequently have a lot to learn
However they grow well for me and so I assume I have to be doing something right
Hi Nicole, Thanks for your post and photo, that sure looks a big vine! I just love it when a whole bunch of blooms show up. Nearly all my MGs are volunteers self seeded from last year. Because of the quake and radiation spewed out from the Fukushima nuke plant I've done very little gardening this season, so I can't really claim any credit for the blooms as they're God given. Must get me a "Roman Candy" too!
Jon, those are some fantastic blooms. I especially love the speckled and the purple one with partial white - very cool. What is the 3rd one down? That's also pretty, white with a burst of lavender/pink?
Once the seeds start drying, I can collect. I'll be glad to send you some. Look like I will have plenty! Can you receive seeds from oversea?
Hi Nicole, the third one down is second generation Pink Silk crossed with Lord knows what! the specked one is called just Blue Speckled, all the rest are NO IDS volunteers from last years, so only the bees know.
Hi ya folks!
Helena, Rebecca cross maybe the vine is producing all sorts!
Linda, I haven't harvested any as yet but your welcome to a mixed baggie when I do.
Thanks Charleen!
