anyone grow these?
I'm trying them for the first time this year. I got them from seed. they are doing very little. the seed pack made them sound really easy???

here's a pic of some I have in a pot. (I also have some I put in the garden they are doing about the same???)

I also planted some seeds and they are about the same as yours. This is my first time so I can't give any advice but will be watching to see if someone does.

What zone are you in down there, Cricket? For my zone 9 these are a cool weather plant. So I sow in fall for late winter-spring flowers. They don't do too well in high heat.

well, that would explain it! I'm in zone 9 too, tina.
I guess I'll give them to the compost and use the soil for something else.
I'll make a note on my seed pack they are fall/winter.
thanks, girly! thumbup
