Chocolate Eupatorium seedlings in patio cracks: can I save them?

Posted by linnea56 z5 IL (My Page) on

I’d like to have another one of these. Of course, it didn’t seed anywhere useful, only between the bricks of the patio. I could soak and carefully pull them up, but they are bound to have damaged or abraded roots. Would it be a good idea to let them grow on in a shady holding bed for a year before moving them to the sunnier and drier location where I’d like them to go?

Or are they tough enough to not need the coddling? Thanks!

If your not up to pulling a few patio bricks to get at them easily why not pull as many as you can and coddle half and plant half. See what happens.
