Number of items I have planted so far since Christmas. Almost all were seeds - 3 eldeberry cuttings, 2 colocasia. Most everything in 72 cell trays - about 1/2 on heat mats and all under lights.

One of the weirdest things was crinum "seeds"/bulbils. Those honkers are freaking HUGE. Of course, I won't see blooms for 4 years or so -- Shrug!

Have ~ 200 Milkweed seed of ~ 23 species. > 60 are tender in my zone, including both of the Calotropis. Big Grin And yes, I planted Family Jewels.

I am maybe 1/2 done. But I have far more seeds than I can plant. Need more space. Of course if the weather keeps up its current pace, I will be in my pretend greenhouse by late March rather than the usual late April. The GH can hold ~ 500 seedlings, so the sooner I move to there, the sooner I can start more seed in the Torture Chamber.
