I might have overdone it

Post by iann »

I sowed a few Anacampseros comptonii seeds earlier in the year to see if they were still viable, and got nothing. So I sowed a lot of seeds and even though they're tiny plants, there might be too many coming up. Of course 90% of them may die. Or 100%! So it might all balance out in the end.

If you end up with too many, I'll volunteer to relieve you of a couple! :grin: I'm sure I can find something for a swap...

Maybe the easiest way to grow them is just to let them be weeds? Here in a pot of Avonia harveyi.
