| Just wondering if there is any way to start these by winter sowing them. We are having a very warm spring and the temps are predicted to get even warmer. I started them in the ground last year, and because our growing season isn't as long as it is in the south, they never got very big. |

| Lisa, I'm much further North than you and I have direct sowed them in past years (before I knew anything about witer sowing), and found they grew extremely well. Just be sure they receive full sun. I'll be growing them this year, first year in a long time, and plan to direct sow them to grow up a trellis near my front door. Looking forward to them. |

| Interesting, I wonder why mine did so poorly. Maybe a little more compost this year. |

| I believe they take about 3 weeks to germinate. I'm going to winter sow some, and then direct sow some more. |
