Disporum (Ferry Bells) & Streptopus (Twistedstalk)
|
Ferry Bells and Twistedstalks are both small genera related to Salomon's Seal and are native from North America to central Europe and eastern Asia. They have only slightly creeping rhizomes from which emerge their flower stalks in mid spring followed by bright colored fruits in several species in mid summer. All species grow well in any cool, leafy, slightly moist, yet well drained soil in partial shade. Sow preferably in autumn in any humus rich, well drained soil in a sunny to partially shaded spot. Seeds require a cooling period over several weeks prior germination in late spring. Some seeds might take two years to germinate. Thus do not discart pots with ungerminated seeds too early. All are USDA Climate Zone 6. 10 seeds per package. |
