Hi Susan .. ops .. think I owe you an answer??

But I can tell everyone here maybe ..not sure if I gave an intro of myself? 

Sometimes ago I told I found some old seedpods on decidious Rhododendron
now in februar ... and I got good help here in list how to handle and sow
... thou they were surprized I still could find seeds. So I sowd a tray
each from both a red and a orange flowering azalea ... and now my very
Rhodo. seedlings ever are germinating all over in the trays! This is nice.

And I am full of questions: 
What can I expect now? will they be like their parents - or will there be
possiblities for new crossings - these plants stands close - and I have
lots of bees. But plants are so old that I have really no idea of name -
sorry.
They are in plastic dome - should I keep them there - and for how long?
Any other good experiences to share will be welcome.

So a bit about me - sorry Susan you asked long time ago ... I forgot until
today: I live in Hardager in western Norway, on a little fruitffarm where I
have apples, plums, sweet cherries and strawberries for sale .. and some
different berries for own use.

I also grow for sale a bit christmas trees and different woodplants with
decorative branches that flower decorateurs use.

Next step - a nursery on Hosta, hemerocalis and outdoors bonsai is still a
dream, exept of small seedling in basement now. But I need both more income
and varialbe work here because I am going to stop working beside the
farmwork. Until now I have been 15 years in a research station for
fruitgrowing and advising .. but starting on your self is are real
challenge. Experiences on this is also welcome :)

Best regards
