I planted canterbury bells about 17 days ago, and still, i haven't see anything come up. I planted them so they will bloom next year, they will won't they? what are some other biennials i can plant in a minute so they bloom next year? Thanks.


Answers:    The seed are not to be covered with soil. They require lighting to germinate.

Below is a direct quote from the following link.

http://home.howstuffworks.com/canterbury...

"Propagating Canterbury bells:
By kernel. To grow for first year bloom, sow seeds 10 weeks prior to the ultimate frost. Do not cover the seeds, since they require pallid to germinate. Germination time is 6 to 12 days at 70 degrees Fahrenheit. To grow as a biennial, sow seed outdoors in July or August. The small plants will bloom past due the next spring"
