Aciphylla & Celmisia

Checked my pots yesterday evening.

There is 1 Chelmesia seedling!

 

Mid June, and still only 1 Chelmesa seedling

 

On the plus side it's one more than you had in January

I wonder if the seed may have needed damp storage which would have affected their viability.

 

For £20 worth of seed, I would have expected more than 1 seedling!

The seeds were sent to me dry packaged as most seed is. And was sown within a week or so of receiving them.
Should the supplier have possibly kept them damp?

Anyhow, I will keep the pots for another year or so.
Possibly more stratification over the winter may help

 

Ouch

It was just a thought. It is rare, but there is seed that should not dry out or it will lose its viability.
