| I had good germination, after which about two dozen were transplanted into a flat. I'm ready to pot up into small square pots. I'm wondering if any of you ever put a couple seedlings together to make a sort of mini-clump to start out with, once they're ready to be set out in the garden. Or would these achilleas do better growing as singles? Many thanks. |

| They clump and grow well together. I normally transplant them in clumps of 3-4 (mostly 4) into 4" pots and then group pots of 3-4 together in the garden. Singles will grow ok but just don't look right to me - too lonesome and spindly looking alone. I want to see more blooms than green growth. So it is just an appearance issue. Dave |

| Thank you, Dave. Just the kind of information I was hoping for. Gary |
