Polygala

[Webos]

Anyone out there know anything about "Polygala"...apparently it's in the Milkwort family. I just spoke to a friend and he told me he dropped a stump out front of my house today...I got home and didnt notice it. I'll have to go outside and have a look at it in the dark!

Hey Webos,

Just wondering how you went with the "Polygala"? Assuming you found it in the dark.

I dug up three established polygala x dalmaisiana's to make room for a new garden bed. Was not sure if they would survive or make good material but decided to pot them up in the end. Wondering if you had any luck with the stump you received?

Cheers
Elmo

In greek it means "Very Good"

I thought poly meant multiple as in polyglot speaking multiple languages. I thought gala was a type of apple.

Don't really think these stumps are multiply good, very good, nor likely to produce apples.

Guess I'll just keep tending to them until they show some life, and hopefully promise might be a while...
