Good luck when you find the seed!

Hi Rick ,

maybe it was the wrong time with sowing ...I think the seeds must be fresh and the seed distributions are mostly in spring ...
I will try now ...if I'm successful I will Report

A friendly Soul from this Forum will swap with me some seeds ;D ;D

Seeds need to be fresh to get germination. Can take a year and a half (or more) to get germination although the odd seed may germinate in the first spring after an autumn sowing. In my experience germination percentage is usually low, even with fresh seeds.

thanks for your info
I had believed some people had a Problem with this shop ....I think it must be another seller

Also Chiltern sells seeds of this Euonymus :)

The only Problem is the room in our garden :-\ :-\
