RE: Advent Seed Calendars - Small chilli - 23-12-2020 Door 23 is verbena bonariensis Door 11 has germinated godetia grandiflora “azalea flower mix” pink & white. RE: Advent Seed Calendars - Veggie - 23-12-2020 I love Verbena bonariensis - and so do the butterflies, bees and goldfinches in winter. My Door 23 hides Morus Alba - White Mulberry (2016). I have a blurry memory of White Mulberry trees lining the streets of Rethymnon, Crete, where they were harvested and turned into the local firewater, Mouroraki. You couldn't go anywhere without having a glass of Mouroraki given you - waiting for the bus, buying bread in the bakery and so on. That was some holiday RE: Advent Seed Calendars - Small chilli - 24-12-2020 The last door number 24 is aquilegia clementine red https://www.shootgardening.co.uk/plant/aquilegia-clementine-red-clementine-series RE: Advent Seed Calendars - Veggie - 24-12-2020 My Christmas Eve door is more suitable for Halloween....................Dead Man's Fingers! Of, if you're feeling hungry..............Blue Sausage Fruit! Its proper name is Decaisnea fargesii which is far more difficult to say. https://pfaf.org/user/Plant.aspx?LatinName=Decaisnea+fargesii RE: Advent Seed Calendars - Veggie - 25-12-2020 The Sow must go on............. Day 25 - Cyphomandra betacea / Tree tomato / Tamarillo. https://www.chilternseeds.co.uk/item_430_cyphomandra_betacea Very old seeds from 2015 but they'll never grow in their packet. RE: Advent Seed Calendars - Veggie - 27-12-2020 Day 26 - Wonderberry - Solanum retroflexum x burbanki . Sow by 2013!!! I did sow some when they were in date but I just found these leftovers so I'll give them a whirl. My last Advent sowing will be tomorrow when I fill the last module.
