Casuarina equisetifolia Seedlings

Commonly known as sheoak or she-oak, ironwood or Filao

Here with a filao / sheoak / ironwood / casuarina fruit. The round spiky sphrere.

The seeds are contained within the spiky cavities on the fruit. In nature, the fruit is green when still unmature, then as it matures the fruit's skin contracts and pop open the spiky ends which contains the seeds and releases them in the wind. I placed the unriped seeds in a warm spot. I usually keep the fruit inside closed cloth to prevent the seeds from flying away.

This is a robust clivia miniata seedling with the sprout clearly in view laterally from the seed body. The root spike seeks soil and moisture intially with the chlorophyll bearing leaf process heading toward the light source. A very amazing process to witness by any green thumb.

I sprinkled seeds in a bare patch a few weeks ago, and they're growing quite nicely.

This cucumber seedling was one of just 3 from last year's pack that has sprouted. I'm really hoping this little soldier makes it all the way to producing some delicious fruit for us again this year!

I've been tempted to start pulling the volunteers out of our compost

and replanting them around the yard. Our worms bins seem to do a

excellent job of getting regular seedling volunteers. I think we have

a squash and sunflower volunteers here.

These lettuce seedlings are starting to show signs of their first "proper" leaves, after 2 weeks.
