Seeds I have sown today

:D The seed are "Hundredweight" variety but not living up to their name at the moment.
Just been out and given them a good watering........and talked to them :D

 

Agastanche anisata

Never even heard of it! It came through the post from T & M today, I didn't order it, it just appeared, so I put them in seed tray, read the instructions then wondered why I had not offered them on ebay - 3 - 4 months germination! well at least they do not have to go in the fridge.

Complete mystery.

 

I've just checked my seed trays and the dierama have germinated after weeks of sitting on top of the soil- and so have some of the hardy geraniums.

 

omphalodes "starry eyes" off ebay???
fingers crossed

 

Just bought some epiphyllum seeds of ebay. Just crosses, not a named variety, but you never know...

 

The agastanche which was supposed to take 3 weeks to germinate was through in 4 days!

I have had some great plants of ebay - always worth a look - but don't bid against me!!!!!

 

27 Epi seeds arrived today.

The growing instructions tell me that I can expect flowers in as little as 5 years. Hmmm, when they say that it usually means 10.

Blimey, I don't know if I'll be able to keep them or myself alive that long.

 

Any update on your ensetes MF ? :D

 

Thanks MF, I am sending some ensete seeds to wahaj but I might try another one as I have 5 left. I said you might have some tips as you had two that germinated.

Would love to see some pics. My comp pic 'Midnight Flower' is printed and on my wall. I am really pleased I found the over exposure function. I can take loads more now in the summer with the disco lights going and the under lighting showing off the fronds and other foliage. :D
