I have a sprout! Does anyone else?
Last August I put the year-old Chrysographes seeds in the fridge, and
when I looked at them in March, there was a sprout! There were another 4
or 5 after that, but they didn't survive the move to a bigger pot. But
the one I have is flourishing. It was interesting to note that it seems
to have "seed leaves" like other plants, and these are falling off as
the thicker, later leaves come on. It is in a 5 inch pot on the north
side of the house where it gets early morning and late afternoon sun but
is shaded during middle of the day. I keep it watered but not sopping,
and it now has 4 thicker leaves and a early leaf about to fall off.
A couple of you mentioned having seeds last Summer or Fall. How are
yours doing? (And let me know if I'm doing something wrong with it!)
