(I put the little fence in to keep the birds from pecking and it worked.)

These have grown and need to be separated out now.

Here they are today June 12, 2013:

Added todays' photos to the post, Lynn!

They seemed to enjoy their cramped living conditions!! Hilarious!

Am separating them out. Should be interesting to see how many different varieties are there.

Thanks, Chris and Lynn!

It's over 90 and humid today.

May venture out later to divide them, and will show pics of the different varieties..

I see alot of teeny ones hidden....

This may have already been asked, did you fertilize them? Mine are growing so slow.

I did liquid fertilize them back when they were teeny, but not since then...kind of forgot about them, until now..... Hilarious!

Okay, I will have to get the fertilizer out. Kevin does his also, and they grow so much faster than what mine are doing.

When the first set of leaves appeared I fertilized, then every few months, till they were off and running. ......

Not sure what fertilizer I was using then, since I have so many.

May have been Jack's.

Think I may have used some of my liquid Orchid fertilzers too, as I am big on experimenting with this and that.

But I am sure any good liquid fertilizer will work.

I just stay away from Miracle Grow.
