Does any one know where I can buy the flower seeds already planted into a artifical turff? All you do is measure where you want to plant it and cut to the desired size. It will not let weeds come up in your new flower garden. It is suppose to have a hundred different flowers planted in it. Please le me know where to find it. I saw it on a comercial on TV but do not remember what the name was.
Thank you

I am looking for the product I seen on TV, It is flowers in a roll that you just put in your flower bed.?
QVC sells it. Try their website.
Reply:Anytime you want to buy something that's on TV, go to Yahoo.com and type in: "product" as seen on TV. I did that. It's called the Roll N Grow Garden. Click the link below to buy it.

Why is it impossible to use this year flower seed for plantation?
Not understanding your question, are you asking why you can't use a seed that is harvested this year, and used immediately? If so, the answer is that it depends on the seed type. Some seeds need to be single dormant periods, others need double dormant periods. Some have odd seed coatings that require treatment (seed coat dormant), probably there because a lot of seeds need to pass threw the gut of a bird/ animal to "treat" the coat and ready it to grow. Most veggie's and annuals don't need a dormancy or treatment but you probably could check a good gardening encyclopedia for a list. Wyman's Encyclopedia has one and there must be one on line. Also look up "layering and stratifying of seed" and new regimens for dormancy which just use plastic bags in a common refrigerator.

If fruits have seeds in them them what are seedless fruits and cultivated fruits considered?
A fruit is the ripened ovary—together with seeds—of a flowering plant
Where do cultivated %26amp; seedless fruits come in at
example bananas in the wild have seeds in them while most bananas sold are cultivated and dont have seeds
Are they still a fruit as well as other fruits that dont have seeds because of cultivation or genect modification.
The defintion of fruits having seeds would exclude those right ?

Still a fruit; no seeds due to genetic modification.
Reply:That is NOT the correct definition to start with. A fruit is a ripened ovary, period. Seeds come from ovules within the ovary. Whether a fruit has seeds or not does not change the fact that it is a fruit. Please be aware there is a lot of misinformation out there on the internet.
Reply:That is an excellent question.
They would be considered a "cultivar" of the parent variety and identified as such. So you might have a "Big Yellow" banana, cultivar an the cultivar would have something "different" ... in your example no seeds. It would remain a banana cultivar.
It is good to be curious and ask these questions.
BTW "Sandstorms_brother" has no clue what the hell he's talking about.
Reply:No, that does not exclude these. The Cavendish bananas sold commercially have undeveloped seeds, as do the so-called seedless watermelons. Those are the small dark specks near the center of the banana. There are very few bananas in the wild, unfortunately, which is leading to a rapid loss of genetic diversity. Many species of them have gone extinct in the last few decades.

About Planting Rose Bush/planting seeds?
I have have flower seeds that I am wanting to plant, and Roses in my grandmothers garden, Whats the best chemical/soil/ products that i can use when watering the flowers,
ok about the Roses ,I have a bunch of snip roses with stems, I heard I can use some type of Root starter or growth Hormone, and special water to start a rose bush from a rose stem.
any help would really be appreciated
About Planting Rose Bush/planting seeds?
1) Plain water works better than anything for starting seeds. Later, you can use a little fertilizer or compost. For flowering plants, the ratio of N:P:K should be about 1:2:1 or 1:2:2
(as in 10-20-10 or 5-10-10)
2) If your cut roses are from the florist, they've probably been treated with something like silver thiosulfate, and are not viable.
This is a little late in the season to take cuttings in most of the US, but here's some information from the ARS:
http://www.ars.org/About_Roses/propagati...
Remember that home propagation of patented plants is illegal.
Reply:1. Go to this website, click onto the flower seeds that you have, scroll all the way to the bottom of the information page and read all about how to grow your seeds:
http://www.gardenersnet.com/flower.htm
2. Everything you need to know about growing roses from cuttings (with pictures):
http://www.scvrs.homestead.com/Cuttings1...
Reply:You can buy something called root tone (if I remember the name) which is a rooting hormone that will help promote root growth. However you need to clip it below a node where branches are starting to grow out (where it forks). Then just use regular potting soil and water. Roses do prefer a certain acidity but you can worry about that when they're larger. They sell fertilizer specifically for roses.

I want to plant a little garden. What flowers/vegetable seeds should I buy that I can plant right away?
(Meaning I can plant them in June and have vegetables or flowers by summer's end.)
I want to plant a little garden. What flowers/vegetable seeds should I buy that I can plant right away?
It's a little bit late for planting seeds (by the time they're mature enough to produce veggies, the season will be winding down). I would recommend finding starts at your local nursery (young plants, a little older than seedlings). Zucchini and other summer squash are easy to grow and will reward you with lots of food, and there's nothing quite like a tomato from your garden! Basil is also super easy to grow, as are most herbs. Wander the aisles at your local nursery and see what looks good! Good luck!

When do you plant flowers in WI if you are using seeds?
Normally I use flowers that are already grown early/mid june and plant them but this year I wanted to plant seeds. Can anyone tell me when the best time to do this is?
When do you plant flowers in WI if you are using seeds?
You can find out what zone you're in, and what your expected last date of frost is here:
http://www.garden.org/zipzone/
Once you do this, the back of the seed packets usually will tell you how early to plant them- usually 6-8 weeks before the last frost.
I'm in Minnesota and I just started mine, so you should probably start yours pretty soon! Hope this helps:)
Reply:after the last frost (your guess is as good as mine)
you can start them inside in little pots now and then transplant when weather permits

I want to grow Texas Blue Bells from seed, but what part of the flower head has the seed?
I dead headed some, then set aside to dry more-but the seed pod was still green at the base of the dead petals. Are the seeds going to be in the pod thingy or on the end of each petal?? I heard they were small but this is ridiculous! Where are they?
I want to grow Texas Blue Bells from seed, but what part of the flower head has the seed?
Seeds are contained in the fruits, which are the matured, ripened ovary of the flower. Chances are if you deadheaded, the seeds are too young to germinate. You'll want to leave an inflorescence or two on the plant till the fruit (=seed pod) starts to get dry on its own.
Reply:You should not deadhead the flowers until all the parts (particularly the seed pod) are dry if you want the seeds. When they are dry, put the seed pods in a paper bag and let them dry some more. Then you will be able to free the seeds by crushing the pods with your fingers. The seeds will all fall into the bottom of the bag.
Good Luck!!!
