    Ok... time to start a new thread of my own, for 2013!

    A small success
    ALLIUM seeds germinated nicely.
    Would be nice to know what kind and color. But the size will do for now.

    Those allium sprouts look nice and strong. Do you have a place to plant them once they've matured a bit?

    Now that you have posted the Allium baby pictures, we can hardly wait to watch them grow up.

    Hehehe, they will grow. But I am not sure how slow/fast.
    I am just concerned about the seeds I also spread in the garden, generously!
    Thinking "whatever!"

    Love your new blooms Calin! I'm a little green with jealousy, as I have no blooms at all. (yet) :D

    Shame Calin, nothing in over a month?
    Well... it was both the weather and maybe I am a bit lazier....?

    And some GREEN:

    My Arisaema ringens (pics of bloom above) - will seeds actually mature? I've read there is need for both M and F flowers and I've only got one plant
    [​IMG]

    Some Lilium I brought back from my trip to Sweden - no idea what they are, but leaves look like it's a species???
    [​IMG] [​IMG]

    Peony seedlings - I got seeds in 2011 from a Botanical garden. I see at least two kinds.
    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    A surprise! These two Crinums survived the winter out in the garden. No idea what kind they are.
    [​IMG]

    My cute Cardiocrinum seedlings - how many will I see in bloom?

    Yes... Shame on you Calin... making us wait to see all those lovely blooms/plants.
    Wow... those Crinum must be really tough! Looks like they are growing through concrete.
