How much of a pain is it to start English Lavender from seeds? The package makes it sound pretty simple, but other resources make it sound like I need to keep them cold for a few weeks (not happening), or just state "Lavender isn’t easy to grow from seed".

RickRogers posted:Lavender is perfectly happy with seeding itself all over the place, even thhrough gravel/mineral mulch, so I imagine follow the packet instructions and you are good to go. Cool, Lavender is one of the plants I've had trouble with (I think it doesn't like how wet Florida is), so it's good to know I can start again from seed without too much trouble.

I have a bunch of yard plants that may need to become houseplants in the next few months. Things I would want to keep include: Hibiscuses, Roses (double knock out if it matters), and a bunch of herbs (basil, oregano, rosemary). All of these are pretty small (nothing more than two feet tall), and they're already living on containers. How reasonable would it be to keep these inside? How much lighting am I going to need for them? What other things am I probably going to do wrong?

Platystemon posted:Roses typically go dormant so they probably won’t like being indoors all the time. Well in that case I guess they won't like being outdoors either  Florida doesn't have much of a cold season. Wallet posted:If they're already in containers you can probably do this, just be careful about watering (with less light they will need less water). I think you may have difficulty giving the roses enough light to keep them happy unless you have somewhere intensely sunny to put them. Hibiscus does fine even in shade IIRC but they won't flower if they don't get enough light. I think I can work with that. I should be able to find sort of balcony or somewhere outside to put my two rose bushes wherever I end up moving. It's reassuring that I have a lot of space between not flowering and dying with the hibiscuses. Thanks for the input
