Hello I have by accident one Pedicularis species on two of my floating gardens
https://www.srgc.org.uk/forum/index.php?topic=18726.0
Probably with some gras-contaminated mossy substrate. I still do not know which species, since it has not flowered yet.
I started this special island last winter. The first visible leafs of Pedicularis appeared late spring.
I know that this species grows in a old sandpit where I took a sample of some mossy substrate, with no other visible plants as some gras and a few Erica species.
My floating gardens device allows to transplant whole small systems with fungi and everything on it in good condition.
My Pedicularis should flower next year, because its biannual.
I wanted to grow this species but could never detect seeds, so this was a lucky accident.
It is not too difficult having seedlings of trees on one of these Islands growing. I experiment already with willow, maple, pine, spruce and birch species,
just because of the mycorrhiza conected with these trees in order to seedgrow more difficult orchids and other species which cant grow without special mycorrhiza.
At the moment I have about 50ty of these islands.
