    Vic, thank you so much for the pond plants, I am thrilled with them.

    Do you keep them in a pot in the water or plant around the edge?

  • Hi,

    Does anyone have any Agastache 'Blue boa'?

    Thanks,

    Justin

  • Glad you got your plants/seeds okayimage

    I have them in a bog area at the edge of the pond, Lyn. The TM spreads about, well, just appears here and there so might be better off in a pot. I've got an idea they both can be submerged to 25cm though...

    I should say to both you and Fishy if there are thick white roots in the JE, they will be mini bulrush too so might be worth removing, I tend to let them jumble together, being idle. It's not invasive by any stretch, I've had it 2 years with no restraint and it hasn't gone crazy or anything.

    You're very welcome nut image

    Victoria - plants turned up this morning. Thank you so much,all wonderfully packaged as ever and an extra one!! The juncus effusus discussed above I believe. I've put the TM in a normal pot in 4" of water for now,still waiting on baskets from amazon though the time they're taking they are probably coming from 'the' amazon image Victoria,I think I might put the JE in the damp ground surrounding the pond. It seems quite adaptable?

  • Thanks Nut!! image

  • Worth a try Fishyimage Didn't you want the JE? Sorry, I might not have read your message properlyimage I nearly threw in some hornwort as well but wasn't sure how you and Lyn would feel about it, cross contamination etc...

     P.S not me Justin, sorry. I did grow some mixed from seed this year but nothing looks like Blue Boa.

    Fishy, any old pots will do, neednt be special ones.

    Vic, please feel free to chuck in anything another time, Fishy and I are just starting out.image

    Is there anything else I can send to you. Still have campanula like you had before, and primulas, polemonium, rudbeckia soon to be thinned out and transplanted.
