Title: Ajuga lupulina
Post by: Tristan_He on July 24, 2016, 08:08:43 PM: I have a couple of plants of this species from trillium.no seed. Does anyone have any advice on the best place to plant them out?

Thanks, Tristan

I have one solitary plant, the only one to germinate from a packet of Chris Chadwell's seeds. Edrom lists it and they suggest sun or semi-shade and moist but well-drained soil. I must go and plant mine today!

Generally the plants do better once out of the pot, in which conditions are sometimes more difficult to control ( over/under humidity associated to shade or not).
Let's post our results to come in this thread!
