coleus, bush violet, zygocactus, and eucalyptus seedlings, plus a ton of miscellaneous cuttings -- scented geraniums, assorted flowery geraniums, etc.
I like this seedling. I wonder how this seedling will develop.

A large array of coconut seedlings established by GWD Forestry in Brazil.
The coconuts produced on the plantation sites will be ready to harvest after just 4 years and will create and annual income for investors from then on till the investment's end with an average Internal Return Rate (IRR) of around 23%.

Early vegetative pests—rice seedling maggot
Atherigona oryzae Malloch Diptera: Muscidae
Rice seedling maggot infests only upland ricefields or more rarely lowland fields without standing water. The larvae of this fly cut young tillers causing deadhearts ( Fig. 32 ). A severely attacked field will have many missing plants as a result of tillers having been totally severed ( Fig. 33 ). The fly has a wide host range and passes the dry season in dormancy. It re-emerges with the onset of the wet season. Thus, the seedling maggot is highly seasonal and can be avoided by early or late planting.
The adult is a common looking yellowish gray fly ( Fig. 34 ) and is active during the day. It has two or three pairs of dorsal black spots on the lower half of the yellow abdomen.

The following extract is copied from -
"The small, tropical Australian rainforest tree Gymnostoma australianum (L. Johnson) is presently only known from five sites in the environs of Thornton Peak, in north-eastern Queensland. Aggregated populations of these trees occur in open sites along rocky stream banks at various altitudes from sea level to 1200 m, and amongst granite outcrops and fern fields at high altitudes. Trees are tolerant of shallow, acidic soils but do not occur where light is limiting. The population of trees occurring on a mid-stream island in Noah Creek form monospecific stands on the central rocky portion of the island. This population is subject to moderate levels of disturbance during flooding. Lost individuals are likely to be replaced by conspecifics as seedling growth under adults is plentiful. Although disturbance enables current populations to persist, the species does not appear to be a coloniser of disturbed habitats. Gymnostoma australianum is more accurately described as a habitat specialist, occurring in marginal, low nutrient sites within various types of rain forest. These sites are narrow in range both geographically and ecologically. This restricts the expansion of current populations and has probably influenced population expansion in the past. Therefore, the hypothesis that the species, or its ancestor, was a recent immigrant from northern tropical Malesian forests was rejected. The current distribution of the species is more likely to represent the persistence and expansion of trees from local refugia."
