It's always exciting when they germinate! Congratulations. What variety is it? BTW great pic.

Thank you, I was lucky enough to get a decent pic in the first few snapshots. All I had to do was crop it to fit.

This is, to the best of my knowledge, P. edulis Sims. I intend to use them as practice vines. I want to familiarize myself with the aspects of growing them. I plan on choosing a species to work with; based on which difficulties I am able to overcome.

Little Ed has been standing up straight for about a week now. HeÂs about 1 inch (25 millimeters) tall and hasnÂt grown more than a few millimeters at best. I hope this is normal. What is the term for the covering over the leaves?

This week I saw one seedling spring open like a jack-in-the-box. IÂve never seen a plant move like that. It was amazing.
