My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Winter Sowing

Chocolate Joe Pye

19 years ago

I have potted up my chocolate joe pye (eupatorium) from winter sowing and I have 7 robust seedlings that I chose to keep. These seeds were from a plant I got from Jeanne from our fall plant swap here in Columbus. There were just a few on this plant, but I harvested them and sowed them.

Anyhow, they came up green, but I was patient, and as we all expected, the second set of true leaves ARE chocolate! This has happend on four of them; we will see what the percentage is for chocolate/original. Either way, it's all good.

Anyone else?
