Default Re: New Ensete on the market- E. gilletii seeds

I got my seeds in the mail last week, much to my surprise. Usually, RPS is pretty slow about mailing seeds, but this time they got here in less than 3 weeks! Anyhow, here they are with a US quarter for scale.



You can see in the photo that 2 of the seeds have the micropylar plug missing (top center and left center), and there are many more than that. I hope that is not a bad sign, but it usually isn't good. If I can get 10% germination, I will be quite happy with that. They have all been sowed already, so it's just a waiting game now!
