What do bluebell seedlings look like?
Davy wrote in
. 109.145: Last autumn I sowed some british bluebell seeds and now something has come up and I don't know if they are bluebells. The seedlings I see have grass-like leaves erupting fountain-like from a central stem. I book I have says the seedlings look like chives - which I understand to mean have individual round stems. Can anyone help? Davy I think I have sussed this. I am pretty sure the plants are pendulous sedge. We have many large pendulous sedge plants with drop a lot of seed and some of this must have gone into the leaves which I then used to make leafmould to make seedling compost! thanks everyone Davy |

Davy - do you have a pet bird, or do you feed the birds?

The message . 145
from Davy contains these words: I think I have sussed this. I am pretty sure the plants are pendulous sedge. We have many large pendulous sedge plants with drop a lot of seed and some of this must have gone into the leaves which I then used to make leafmould to make seedling compost! I have loads of similar plants under the bird feeder - using-up seed after the cockatiel turned-up its toes. I'm pretty sure it will be something of that ilk. Shortly, I'll post a photo of a grown-up plant, with seed-head. -- Rusty Direct reply to: horrid dot squeak snailything zetnet point co period uk Separator in search of a sig |
