seeds swap picotee

16 years ago

This flower is from a seed swap in 2005. It is blooming for the first time this year and is a lovely picotee. I could not have asked for better. I just wish I had marked on it who gave the seed. I will certainly be collecting seed from this one, if it makes any.

I'm so jealous, I still am struggling to germinate my seeds.... I will have to take the pot where they are planted out of the fridge on April 1st, and then who knows how long I will have to wait till they will finally germinate.

Lovely picotee.

Rino, your seed may actually germinate in the fridge. (Some of mine have done that) What you are impatient for is the leaves to show above soil.

Nice picotee, thanks for posting. Are there any others coming along from that seed batch? if so I hope you are as lucky with those as you were with this one!
