We have a small pond in a big plastic pot from Garden Works . It was VERY pretty last year. I have collected the seeds from a water plant that makes lovely snow white star like flowers at the end of grass like structure. .And we had a very tall grass like plant like square sticks 3-4mm wide up to 2-3 feet tall. Question will it grow again or does it only once. All the stems seem dead only one is still green and I don't know the name I think it is an Australian plant if I recall correctly. Than we had a beautiful read leaf Cannas like but I it does not seem to be growing again also. Do these plants only grow once? Several of the other plants are REgrowing like the one with this curly leaves. There was also one like a satelite with lovely flowers. HOW does one go about to grow from the seeds collected . Do I put a pot with earth and gravel in a water pot or do I grow them in a normal seedling pot with soil and than put them into water ? At 29$ to 49$ for one small plant in shops I am eager to be able to grow them again myself if the winter killed them off OR/AN maybe make another small still pond in our garden. THANK YOU for any advise.. My fault I not kept the name of all these plants...
#3 Rhynchospora colorata (Dichromena colorata) I believe. Can't imagine paying that much as it grows in wet ditches in Texas. According to the site below it's native to the USA. http://www.wildflower.org/plants/result.php?id_plant=RHCO7
Hello Thanks for showing me . My Dear this is CANADA VANCOUVER and here it grows at the Nursery for 29.99 for a smallish pot :-) So do you know HOW to grow some more I have the seeds that I collected from the flowers..? Austin Texas looooooovely place been there seen the cave with the bats etc... Loved it
Regarding the Canna lilies, after the first hard frost of the year in October, you need to cut off the deat stems and lift the rhizomes. You can then clean them and store them in a garage in some peat moss for the winter.
Meaning ? This water Canna liliy is dead? I said they look like Cannas but in South Africa Cannas grow in the garden not in water.. As I did not do this at all. Thanks
I DO NOT NEED DRUG REHAB !! What is this ? Its NOT funny this a plant Forum and yes Canas grow in the garden
