| Has anybody started rudbeckia "cherokee purple"? I got some free seeds and started them but I'm wondering if they'll bloom this year? According to what I've read, they're not winter hardy, so how do I overwinter them so that they bloom next year? |

| Just wanted to share my excitement of discovering that I am now growing a quince plant! Last December I managed to find quinces at the farmer's market and later tried saving and planting the seeds. Unfortunately, I really didn't do my research beforehand about properly saving the seeds, and they got moldy. The seeds I planted never sprouted, and I figured I did something wrong. HOWEVER, despite my poor gardening skills one quince seed has managed to sprout! I completely forgot about it until the leaves popped up. Nature finds its own way. I am going to be hovering over that thing for the next six months, watching it grow. And this may be my imagination, but I can almost swear that the little seedling has a faint, sweet quince fragrance. |

| Blueheron: Most annual Rudbeckias bloom the first year even here up north with our short summers, so you should have no problem. By the way, you may want to check the name: the annual Rudbeckia I know is Cherokee Sunset. |
