    Obedient plant, is a great plant for attracting pollinators to your garden. Obedient plant grows well in zones 3 to 10 in more moist soils in all sun levels and soils types (though it is surviving fine in my more average garden soil). It's one hardy perennial!
    Obidient plant is part of the mint family and is not toxic to humans so it is good for homes with kids (I would plant it away from where kids will grab at it though due to all the bees it attracts!).

    Information on cold stratification: www.gardeningk... **Note that the above link recommends that the seeds are stratified for 3 months.

    I got some seeds for these from a friend last spring, who recommended planting in the fall here in PA. I planted them in native soil (if you can call rocks and clay 'soil' !) I had a 2' by 2' area and just threw them on and waited. I swear every one germinated! I planted a row of them elsewhere and all of those germinated as well and were growing nicely. At about 6 or 8" the groundhog found them and ate all but one right down to about 3", no leaves left. But that ONE is ready to bloom! A bit later than the others but looking great. I have some seeds left and will plant them before leaving for FL in the fall. Can't wait to see them in the spring!

      Love this story! How nice to have such success with the seeds, but too funny that some of your "crop" was a little buffet for the groundhog! He was probably in heaven!! I did the same thing with my sunflower seedlings this year - I placed out a tray of baby giant sunflowers and a bunny thought that it was a platter set out just for them - oops! I'll be protecting those precious seedlings better next year! I didn't even end up with one flower!!! I'm all about supporting our creatures, but could they be a bit less greedy??! I hope you end up with a lovely collection of obedient plant next spring with lots of flowers, and a few less nibbled off at the knees!! Thanks for watching and for sharing your story! 💚

    Thanks for your help. I put my seeds on damp paper towels in the refrigerator for 4 weeks and they sprouted nicely

    This is exactly what I needed! Thanks so much for sharing. My obedient plants bloomed so late that they are still pink in bloom and I have a while to wait before they will be ready. From what my friends say, this isn't normal for my area where I live, so it's probably just because they've been in my garden only since the spring of 2023. It's like their bloom time got delayed. Interesting when that happens. Love the video! Thanks for sharing it with us.

      I'm so happy it was helpful to you! That's interesting that your flowers are a little late, but all the better to enjoy them for a little longer than expected ☺️ good luck with your harvest! I hope you get lots of seeds this year! 💚

    I enjoyed this video. I heard about the obedient plant in my master garden classes. You made it look very easy to get seed from this plant. Love having free plants. Thanks for sharing.

      Lovely! I'm going to sneak in a bit if seeds still, but at least we have houseplants to satisfy our green thumbs until spring!

    We don't grow these, I like the colander method for harvest. Quick and easy.

      Great! It can definitely be used for other tiny seeds too. Thanks so much for watching! :)
