I have never heard of Pam's Choice. Are they a good company?

I don't have Pam's Choice, but I have Strawberry from Plants of Distinction.
Here's a pic:

Pam's Choice is a beautiful variety of foxglove that gets 4-5 ft. tall, and is creamy white, with a deep maroon throat. Sara, looks like your strawberry foxglove did great for you. I just love foxgloves! I grew some pure white ones a few years ago, that got almost 6 ft. tall, but like a goof ball, cut them back, before they dropped their seeds. I didn't know at the time, that they would re-seed. Guess you live and learn.

Oooops! Well I feel silly. LOL. Those are really pretty Sara.

Ok, Dee you say you have seed from a dinner plate hibiscus? I wondered if the seeds on mine would do anything or if they were just ornamental... Do you have to do anything in particular? Also, I bet those white foxgloves were pretty. Might have to research those for the fenceline I wanna do next spring! :D

hostasforme....I would lurve to trade you out of some of those black hollyhock seed....I'm going out of town in the morning but I will post what I have to trade early next week. I don't have any Pamela's choice...I'm pretty sure. :(

PrairieRose, I'd love to see your list !

Frugalmel, hardy hibiscus are one of the easiest plants that I have ever grown from seeds! If you want to plant them out side, I would just find myself a patch of soft ground,and scratch the surface enough to just barely cover the seeds. You could do this now, and when the weather warms up, they will sprout.....you could also do this with a pot of dirt..that way you will know exactly where they are. (I have been known, to rip out a lot of new seedlings, thinking they were weeds. LOL) This way, you probably won't get blooms the first year,tho.
OR
You can start them inside in March,and get a few blooms, the first year. The first thing I do, after gathering the seeds is put them in a sealed baggie, and put them in the freezer, a few days. There are some kind of little bug that gets inside the seeds and destroy them. You will see a little hole in the seeds if this happens. But, the freezer takes care of them.LOL Anyway, after the freezer treatment, I take them out, and nick them, and soak them in water overnight. Then you plant them in anything with drain hole(that will hold the dirt). Just barely cover the seeds with dirt, give a little drink of water, and put in a warm place, like on top the fridge.Check and keep them moist. It should take 10-14 days, for you to see the sprouts starting.After that you will need to set them under a light(the closer to the light the better, and you can lower them, or raise the light as they grow). You don't need an expensive grow light, an ordinary floresent(misp?) will work great. keep moist, but not real wet. And, that's about it. And once they start, they really grow fast. I grew some from seeds a couple years ago, and they now line the entire front of our mobile home. I love them!
