Gentiana Update

Just over a month-and-a-half after trying to transplant some mountain flowers called Gentiana Phyllocalyx, it's time for an update.


As you can see, something is growing. However, I think that for the most part it's just the grass that was in the clods I dug up - I haven't seen any evidence that the flowers took hold.

However, according to a friend familiar with the Gentiana flower, I dug mine up right at the end of flowering season, so there is somewhat of a chance that the roots have taken hold (the other plants certainly have...) and that the flowers will bloom next year. That's what I'm hoping for.

PS - does anyone have a lawnmower that will fit inside a Coke can?
