To do this we mimic Mother Nature. Only putting the seeds part way in the soil...about half still exposed, seemed to be the best. We also put some screened type cover over them to prevent the squirrels from digging them up. We then left them in the Learning Garden behind the shed. There was 100% success. Two years later we sold them at our plant sale. <br />I do like the Bottlebrush -- very pretty.Janet, The Queen of Seafordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876204203323750245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943318923406174528.post-8892588506813176192009-10-26T18:10:37.546-04:002009-10-26T18:10:37.546-04:00Dawn and Tina, thanks for taking the time to look ...Dawn and Tina, thanks for taking the time to look at my nut-um-buckeye photos.How It Growshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06687132248846516168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943318923406174528.post-51663158598605157752009-10-26T16:40:31.954-04:002009-10-26T16:40:31.954-04:00How wonderful!

I like them because they grow fairly well in shade. That is a must for her. Neat roots on these huge nuts-um-buckeyes.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8943318923406174528.post-82374864627917710922009-10-26T11:57:19.697-04:002009-10-26T11:57:19.697-04:00That's a shame!
