HONESTY PLANT
« on: October 15, 2008, 18:44 »
Ok I am thinking about buying some honesty seeds as I love the seed disc when used in dried flowers ect what I would like to know is

1) How easy is it to grow?
2) How easy is it to contain or how much does it spread?
3) How big does it get?

and anything else anyone would like to contribute?

Many thanks Nicky xxx

HI,
 Grows like a weed
Self seeds allover like a weed
 Grows to about 2ft high................... like a weed

 Apart from that its a great plant LOL

 Seriously it is a very easy plant to grow, takes no looking after, and self seeds without a problem. As it seeds like an annual you just pull out the ones in the wrong place ( like a weed :-) ) . had a patch of them for years and as long as you dont mind Honesty for life they are great.

          Cheers  Alan
