Evening all please imagine me skipping with joy right now I have ecinecea growth on the raspberry ripple hhhhuuuuuuzzzaaaaaahhhhhh......... Tidied the herb bed up a bit .... Does anyone know with monarda I have a mass of leaves around the base do I pull some up? Do I leave then? What do I do with the clump of them......
(envy not sick). echincea still no show, monarda also no show!. Only hope is that as you are further south mine will be here in 3 weeks or so! Both have been closeted and pampered under a dome cloche to protect from spring frosts as advised, how did you overwinter yours Stacey?
Why am I always behind you lot? Not got round to seeds yet! Kinda plan was to get overwintered plants out of the GH first then start seeds but it seems like im gonna be late!
They'll get a bit leggy and they're at risk from damping off if they're left undercover too much jools, so it's a good idea to uncover them once you have some growth. Are they on a windowsill?Turn them each day if they are, because they'll always grow towards the light.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

No they are in the greenhouse Fairy girl....
I'd uncover them then jools and just keep an eye on them in terms of watering etc. You can pot them on once they're a few inches high
