I did post this in the chat but if anyone does a search it may help to see my progress and end product with so little effort.
I started with pots filled with the fall leaves that are collected in Fall that makes a beautiful soil over the winter,
When the stem is done blooming I cut them and place them on top of the pots in the leaf compost soil.
There first winter baby stage I put the pots in the garden and covered them with leaves. Following Spring I divide them into bigger pots. These are second yr from seed to plant look.
