| | | Ivy Broomrape
I was recently sent some seeds of Ivy Broomrape to introduce into my garden. I dug away a bit of soil near the roots of my ivy and sprinkled the seeds there. Do I need to do anything special to get the seeds to flower next year? |

KT can you send me a PM please, I'd like to know where you got the seeds from! 
On the packet's there should be the instructions on how to plant. The only thing I can suggest is make sure the soil is suitable and the situ is preferable! |

They came from me!
I wouldn't have buried them in a hole, just sprinkled then around the roots of the ivy and let nature take its course.
I'll gather some more seeds in the autumn for anyone that wants them.
