» HollyT - Re:I have your Euphorbia

In response to message posted by Marge_Talt:

Hi Marge and all,

Marge, you gave me a little euphorbia start from your garden last spring. It sat around all summer and made roots, and had about 3 good-sized shoots by the end of the summer. They were still there this spring, and since this is my first euphorb, I didn't know when or how far to cut them back. Now they are blooming! Is this what they're supposed to do? Most perennials don't bloom on old wood.

Another, totally unrelated question. On that same visit you gave me a brunnera plant. It is doing very well---blooming beatifully. So beautifully that I want more. What's best method? Start seed? Go to nursery and buy some?

One last thing---have y'all seen the new ann lovejoy book re organic perennial gardening? It's a winner.
