peter planted a seed taken from a pod on a huge wisteria rambling all over our new house. It's put up a fresh green seedling!
Lama seedlings grown in dibble tubes at the Hawaii State Tree Nursery, Waimea, Hawaii Island, Hawaii. Lama grows slowly; these seedlings were sown 15 months before the photo was taken. Note how the racks for the dibble tubes are built with easily shipped tops and bases and put together locally with PVC pipe. Shipping nursery containers and racks to the Pacific often doubles the cost, so any way to ship less bulky supplies is helpful. Note also how each rack of seedlings is labeled with the date the seed was sown or transplanted and the origin of the seeds.
This year's tomato and cucumber plants have started their journey towards, hopefully, a bumper crop.
planted 8/14/2006
given no fertilizer and little water
stunted growth, but still alive.
about an inch and 1/2 tall till recently when i fertilized and started watering liberally.
Curious to see how fast they grow now.
I just had a close look at my big Rhododendron branch that I have in my vivaria. There on one "wet" spot there were 20+ orchid seedlings. I collected the branch outside over a year ago. It has been in the vivaria since then. No idea what species this is as I have had Masdevallias, Pleurothallis, Lepanthes species that have had seed capsules in the vivaria. So I have to wait for a while and see what species these tiny seedlings will grow into.
They are very small now 0,5-2mm in size.
I havent planted any orchid on the branch yet. Just have some hanging on it. On some places some tropical moss have started to grow after it have escaped from some orchids.
So here are some quick shoots of the seedlings!

Tomato seedlings in a little red trough. I like the blown out background, whihc is literally just the window and window frame.
In the full dark canopy of League Scrub were dozens of new plants. Perhaps one of these might survive to maturity. More likely is that none will. It's too dark.
My first guess was Cryptocarya erythroxylon, but it may not even be a laurel.
Jill planted about two-dozen citrus seeds, and watered them for days, and just when she was about to give up, she got about 8 seedlings. It's a solstice miracle.
Maryland Forest Service worked with the Hagerstown Community College Environmental Club students to do a tree seedling giveaway, April 2023
This weekend, we got a little break from the rain, so I transplanted some Boy Choy seedlings into one of our repurposed blue recycle bin. I planted them in a container instead of the vegetable bed, because it lessen the chance of Earwigs and Slugs from getting to them.

"James Busby and his wife Agnes were keen gardeners. James was also a pioneer in growing grapes and winemaking here. So this land began to take on the look of a European-style estate, with its gardens, formal plantings and cultivations.
Plants in the garden reflected the Busbys' interest in botany and the family's need to be self-sufficient in food. They included fruit trees, vegetables and a nursery of native seedlings as well as grape vines. Busby was keen to experiment with exotic plants, but was also interested in the potential uses of natives.
Busby himself is thought to have planted the two rows of ti kouka (Cordyline australis, cabbage trees) visible through the trees on the left. The Norfolk pine was a gift to Agnes Busby.
It was only three or four years old in 1840.
Plantings since 1932 include the põhutukawa that line this path, added to by successive governors-general and Queen Elizabeth II."
