Hens & Chicks
Posted: Wed Sep 19, 2012 1:12 pm
Help!!! I got some hens & chicks online...why I did this in September is a mystery...well, not really because I'm a novice gardener and kind of didn't know what I was doing But they were so cute and I had grand visions of what they would look like in my retaining wall that I just completely ignored the seasons.
So...here I am with these cute little guys in Southern Illinois with no idea what to do with them. I think it's too late to put them in the ground since I've read that they should be planted in the spring. I live in a north/south facing house that gets very little natural sunlight...but I think I might (stress MIGHT) be able to keep them alive til spring if I put them in a container. Will this work?
Any guidance you gardening experts can provide would be so greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!!
