Rose of sharon is a real harty seed and usually will grow in the spring from seeds that fell under the tree and moning glory is the same. My avice keep the morning glories away from the veg garden or they will choke out all your crops!. All the seeds are easy to save and grow quick in the spring. The marigolds I would plant all through my garen to deter bugs and will not hurt the garden! The Mimosa tree has beautiful flowers and is a very fast growing 12 foot tree. It will grow 5 or more feet a year. Way to go good start. Check out some of the post on how to save tomato seeds!
Thank you! We have had these plants for several years, but I just started saving seeds this year, to hopefully share with friends and family. And the rose of sharons, I plant on starting indoors at around march, then hardening them off and planting them outside. That way, I can share and sell. My grandpa always tells stories on how he and his cousin would grow plants and sell them. So I'm going to try to do the same, but it's all fun for me. My great-grandmother planted our mimosa tree over 40 years ago, and it's still going strong! I have 6 or 7 seedlings that I found this spring in the flower bed and potted them. They nearly doubled in size this summer. I trimmed them, and put them underground for winter to avoid the elements.
Will definately check out your posts!
