#16 - Cool Flowers - Troubleshooting Plant Size

16 - Website Image

Are your fall-planted cool flowers getting too large or even trying to bloom before winter? Today, Lisa and Layne discuss why bigger is not necessarily better for cool flowers heading into winter, tips for trying to slow the growth of your plants, and what to do if they are attempting to bloom prematurely. Listen to the podcast and get ready to troubleshoot your overeager cool flowers!

The video version of Lisa and Layne’s conversation will be posted to The Gardener’s Workshop’s YouTube channel, where all “Seed Talk” episodes are organized into a playlist. In addition, auto-generated transcripts are available for viewing on YouTube.
