Well, I did get my little plants in the ground - the one's that I KNOW are Osteopermums - NOT the poppies. LOL - I'm still embarrassed by that one!!

Mark,
Hi, I know it is early, however, I would like to ask if you would be saving any seeds from your plants. If you could I trade for some or maybe even purchase some seeds. The whirlygig is impossible to find in SE PA.

as far as I know the whirlygig variety is only grown from cuttings.

hardy osteospermumsare very shy at setting seed and when they do parentage cant be guaranteed.

I'll keep an eye out over the next few weeks.
