The latest I had a stray seedling germinate was in early June.  Usually they
quit when our night temp get consistantly above 50F.  I have an occasional
straggler come up after that, but germinate at that point becomes very
sporadic.  After they slow down, I have not had good survival rates on those
that germinate late.  Even when I left them in the pots and tried to
maintain them there, survival was very poor.
