They are in the mustard family and those usually are quite good about seeding themselves all over the place. If in doubt, you can always replant them each year--which may be a bit more reliable in the long run.Rosiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10264435407129343604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5533056.post-22774524572180406342010-04-07T16:48:57.765-04:002010-04-07T16:48:57.765-04:00The wild creaseys are hard to find in the fields a...The wild creaseys are hard to find in the fields and gardens as in the past, so I have planted some seeds I purchased and would like to leave them to reseed. My husband said he read that they would not reseed as the wild ones do. Anyone know about this?

Two years ago I was up on a project on the west side of the Catskills and a well driller happened by with a bag of them. I was in heaven... and my family thought I was a bit nuts.
