Well, it has simple tendrils, which does suggest Cucumis. Whether you've got a wildling or a garden goody you won't know until or unless you get fruit. Let me...
Monique, Well, the possibilities are an animal or recently purchased topsoil and recently purchased compost. The whole bed is pretty new. What was there...
just wondering... does anyone else here fantasize about collecting bluebell seeds and distributing them in the wild, so they can reseed & re-establish ...

In a good year you can still see fields of bluebells. In an exceptional year you can see huge fields of bluebells. In one year a bunch of people went out SE of...
Transplanting them is risky. They don't like to be moved. I find the best time to move any is if you have any very young winter rosettes and during rainy...
Where can the seed be purchased? I saw a whole field of them blooming a year or so ago along Hwy 1157 on the way west to Hwy 35West. The soil looked black,...

John, I came across E. exaltatum in bar ditches just west of Del Rio and some other unlikely seasonally wet places that makes me think it might grow as an...
I like Reb's idea. It would be a great publicity grabber, I think. We could do an "Adopt a Highway" sort of this: Adopt a Field for Bluebells." I would be a...
