Yes I took seed from the flowers TT, about this time last year, but I had a selection of different colours. Probably because I had Marmalade and Licorice side by side and the bees probably cross pollenated them. I am trying some more seed this year from Georgia Peach, which is not near the others, so I am keeping my fingers crossed over that one. The seeds are up, but cant tell the colours yet.

Not really clever Yorkshire, you could do it too.

love this one cinders ,i never done it before but ihave collected the seeds, do i just put some potting compost in a seed tray then spinkle the seeds then lightly cover with more soil, where do i winter them ??i have not got a green house,but i was going to buy a propergater, what do you think please???goodnight everyone

Hi Nannymargaret, yes pottingcompost in a tray, sprinkle on the seeds, barely cover the seeds, and probably on a kitchen window sill. Dont let it dry out, if you do it in a small flower pot it will probably be enough, you dont need a large tray,but careful with watering, best to spray lightly, or mist it. You could cover it with a plastic bag, till the seeds come through. Personally I wouldnt bother with a propogater so long as you have them indoors. Prick them out when large enough to handle. Please ask if you want to know any more. pm me if you like.

Sorry nannymargaret, it means private message. No-one else can read what you write then. If you go to my page and where it says 'send a message' and click on that, a box will come up for you to write a message to me. When you have typed it go to the bottom of the box where it says Submit and click on that. No-one else can read our chat then. OK ?
