Native Plant Gardening

Update: Thanks to your advice, I pulled back my mulch and found the seedlings, gasping for life.


I shared a post about my germination issues yesterday and you told me my mulch was a problem. You were right and THANK you for the advice. Someone suggested gently pulling back the mulch to see if the seedlings were beneath. I pulled some back today and there they were!

Hopefully some of these will survive. A lot of the seedlings were definitely struggling to take root in the loose mulch. Sorry little guys, I'm still learning!

    You just weren’t seeing them, see how they are green? That can only happen one way.

  3. Yesss, glad you found them! I was pretty heartbroken by your post so it’s great to see a happy ending.
