mesembryanthemum?

[Finedon.Dandy]

Dont think HW will be able to help so will post this out to all.....

I have some new stepping stones, some of which go through my flower bed and I think mesembryanthemum would be perfect as it gets the sun all day. Trouble is I wasnt going to bother this year and now I have decided I will I cannot find any in the shops and its not worth just ordering those. If anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Tammy

You're right. I can't even say it, let alone help!

[Finedon.Dandy]

I knew it - I just knew that you would be the only reply and not much help either were you!!!

[HeyWayne]

You love me really!

[Finedon.Dandy]

You know I do!!!

Oh you both are so in love . Tammy what type of Mesembryanthemum are you looking for ? Edible one or simply decorative iceplant ?

[Finedon.Dandy]

I believe a common name is livingstone daisy. They are for decorative purpose but if they are edible too then I supose that would be a bonus.

I grew Mesembyanthemum Crystallinum last year, it is an edible iceplant, interested ?
I don't know if I still have any seeds left, will let you know.

[Finedon.Dandy]

I will try anything once.

As long as it is low growing it will suit my needs.

Thanks.

Hi - You're not too late, I've just started off my second lot : You should still find plenty of seeds left in the shops. They're tiny things to start with - a bit like cress - well worth the effort : )

Love them. Dead easy to grow...but the deadheading:-(

I saw some plants in our (new) local Homebase last weekend, haven't seen any at the garden centre yet. Sure you are not too early rather than too late?

Nothing to do with anything - but my sister calls them Miserable Anthems

Hello Tammy,

I couldn't find it we have been moving things around due to the stair renovation. I did sow 2 small pots of them 2 to 3 weeks ago but can't remember where I left the seeds. So sorry !!!
Anyone can help Tammy, please ???

[Madasafish]

I have some spare seeds.
If Tammy will PM me...
