Poking around in the container on 2-12-2021, found 1 more seed (a floater) had sent its radical down. Hope to see a leaf (plumule?) one day soon. Another plumule (from a sinker, not the floater on which I observed a radical) was fully emerged 3-5-2021 when I got back from Montana. Potted it up (lots of roots) on 3-7-2021.

| Moonflower (Ipomoea alba) | On February 5, 2021 | Seeds germinated 1st radical emerging on 2-5-2021; 2nd radical emerging on 2-7-2021. Three rotted (good chance these were the "floaters"). On the 6th seed, the radical started emerging, but the rest of the seed was mushy (might have been the "bobber"). Potted the two good germinated seeds up as the radicals emerged. |

Per https://www.cdn-iris.ca/germin... soak for at least 2 weeks (changing water daily -- ended up giving them this treatment until 1-24-2021, so ~31 days), 10% bleach solution for 30 minutes; rinse; fridge for 12-14 weeks in baggie (plan to remove on 4-18-2021); move to room temp (pot up seeds as they germinate); after 3 days warm the baggie to 90-100 degrees for 30-60 minutes 1x/day; after a week or so, return ungerminated seeds to the fridge for at least another 2 weeks; repeat... Removed seeds from fridge on 4-18-21. No germination yet. Started the warming treatment 3 days later. No germination as of 4-25-21. Returned to fridge for 4 weeks. Unfridged 5-23-2021.

| Species Iris (Iris orientalis) | On December 25, 2020 | Seeds sown 30 seeds from 2020G. Per https://www.cdn-iris.ca/germin... soak for at least 2 weeks (changing water daily -- ended up giving them this treatment until 1-24-2021, so ~31 days), 10% bleach solution for 30 minutes; rinse; fridge for 12-14 weeks in baggie (plan to remove on 4-18-2021); move to room temp (pot up seeds as they germinate); after 3 days warm the baggie to 90-100 degrees for 30-60 minutes 1x/day; after a week or so, return ungerminated seeds to the fridge for at least another 2 weeks; repeat...

| Dagestan Sage (Salvia canescens var. daghestanica) | On December 6, 2020 | Seeds germinated 1, another 1 up on 12-8-20. This is very strange but possibly a reminding/reinforcing lesson -- one of those "teachable moments." After I sowed the seeds, I set the container on the bathroom floor where it wouldn't get as much of a chill as it would have elsewhere in the house. On 11-27-20, since the seeds hadn't emerged, I gave up on them and sowed Oenothera coloradensis ssp. coloradensis in the pots. At that point, I left the pots sitting on the bathroom counter. The temperature stays fairly even there, too, but the pots were exposed to brighter light. So, does S. canescens ssp. daghestanica need 30 days to germinate? Did the brighter light trigger germination? Something else? |

The bulbils began emerging within a week or two. Nine emerged, but one faded right away. As of 11-26-20, eight are still green, though small. Two have two leaves. The rest still have one leaf.

Thinking that transplanting in spring is better for this species. Noting that, on 8-14-2021, planted 1 in old herb bed and 1 between west windows of garage |

| Lilies (Lilium) | On August 22, 2020 | Potted up ~16 into 12" wide x 8" deep pot. These spent the winter in the sun room. Although it freezes in there, the plants never went into a full dormancy. New growth emerged once the weather moderated (possibly Mar-21?). When I put the pot outside for the summer (late May/early June), I noticed several plants were producing bulbils. Not large, brown bulbils. Small green ones, many sporting a little leaf. By the time I transplanted these on 9-5-2021 several were quite large (large/very large pea) and brown, a couple with two or more leaves |

Put on back patio to give a warm, moist stratification period followed by cold, moist stratification. Brought to container back in on 1-24-2021.

(All 4 sinkers germinated in water.) Also on 12-26-19, I can see one of the seeds sown in the milk jug (not the "sinker" that germinated first) has a nice, thick radical and has pushed the seed coat above the potting mix. On 12-29-19, moved the 3 germinated sinkers to the milk jug of potting mix. The oldest one didn't seem to be progressing in water. It might have if I'd left it alone, but I couldn't stand it. As of 1/8/20, all 20 seeds had emerged. The 3 that I left in the water until 12-29-19 were the last to emerge. |

| Foxtail Lily (Eremurus) | On March 25, 2018 | Seeds germinated I should have check these sooner. 10 each of the "molded" and "not molded" seeds had germinated. The cotyledon on a couple of the "not molded" ones was 1" or longer. (I hope it's the cotyledon, anyway. Otherwise I've planted them upside down.)

| Alpine Strawberry (Fragaria vesca subsp. vesca 'Yellow Wonder') | On March 25, 2018 | Potted up 10. I must have sneezed when I was sowing these seeds because I spent the afternoon pricking strawberry seedlings out of random containers of other seeds (e.g., Digitalis, Salvia & peppers). There are more that aren't big enough to handle yet. The containers that were at warm room temp germinated stray strawberry seeds more quickly than did the containers at room temp. Potted 4 more strays on 3-31-18. 4 more strays on 4-7-18. Potted 3 non-strays on 4-8-18. Much later, I decided the strays were some sort of Potentilla that must have been in the potting mix. |
