Happy New Year everyone! Thinking about what seeds to get for this year - has anyone successfully grown either Good King Henry or Agretti? I tried both last year, but had nothing appear from the seeds as far as I could tell.

I did get some Good King Henry seeds but decided not to bother in the end.  Decided to do hablitzia instead - they were a bit reluctant

Good King Henry is not that great to eat and I am someone who loves their greens.  It is very stringy and even my chickens refused to touch it     I can’t remember how it was to get going, but it still pops up on my plot now and then, so maybe you just got duff seeds.   

I’ve grown Salsola (which I think is the same thing) as well.  It was nice to eat but the seeds are difficult to get going.  I think the advice on the pack I had was to soak them overnight, but even so I got very few plants for all the seeds I sowed.  I decided it was not worth the effort of messing around.
