Great Blue Lobelia planted using the "hunk o' seedlings" method, or as I call it, seedling loafs. A milk jug densely sprouts, and rather than separating individuals, it's carved up like brownies and planted in chunks. This is two milk jugs' worth. Jugs set up in very early Spring, 2022. SE Michigan.

    Haha I did this method too with some coreopsis seedlings. They were so intertwined that I just broke them into squares and planted them. Worked out great.

    Love GBL. I wish I’d taken seeds when we moved.

    All I’ve seen this year in the FLX of NY are snails eating milkweed leaves. I didn’t realize some did that.
