Look for Didiscus in the Seed Catalogues. I'm pretty sure Geo, Germania, etc carry it. Needs to be direct seeded in the fall.

Thanks, Kim. I got a few seeds in a seed trade but they didn't germinate. From the books it looks like a neat plant though so I'll try again in the fall.

Oh, now I see it in the Geo Seeds catalog under Didiscus coerulea. I wish I had included it with my large order earlier this spring. It's even a mix of colors which would be nice. What would happen if I ordered some and planted it right now?

It's a hardy annual, so best direct seeded in the fall and over wintered. Will bloom early in the spring.
It does not like warm weather.

>> It does not like warm weather.

Ah, I see. It's definitely turning hot now here in Virginia. I'll put it on my list for the fall.

Thanks,
Steve
