Default Well, it ain't exactly "sprouting"...

...but I think it is interesting nontheless

Changing of the guard (-flowers)
The roses may look a bit bedraggled, but they are the last of 2010 and have been outside in -4^ C (25^F) before I brought them in here on Nov. 18.

Also on Nov. 18, in order to prepare for a table display of greens for a pre-Christmas get together, I clipped a small twig off my Winter Jasmine, to gauge the timing for the opening of the blossoms, and I had the first fully opened blossom on Nov. 21, just 3 days later, representing the first life blooms of 2011 here in Hardiness Zone 6. The photo was taken to day, Nov. 24.

Winter Jasmine is supposed to flower in late winter, usually late January through March, but can be forced to early bloom indoors. I have always used these pretty little life plants together with evergreens and Wandering Jews in X-mas displays, but this is the earliest I have ever tried it.
Best,
Olaf

So what is your timing? Looks to me, that you will be eating tomatoes, before I get around to planting mine.
I could not find an icon for 'jealous', but I am!

Best and good luck with it,
Olaf

Hi Sherry, I'd love to Imitate your indoor gardening prowess (though with some help from you), but we are heading to Vietnam for much of the winter and I cannot overburden our house sitter with too much plant care obligation.
Best,
Olaf

My Texas Mountain Laurel seedling this morning. It is growing pretty fast though not like I expected it to. I thought it would shed the seed coat and the leaves would come out from there, but instead it came out from the side.

As it is currently cool (78f) and damp I have squash, zuccini, basil, coriander, spring onions and lettuce sown in the garden - some sprouts showing but not sure if they are weeds yet. The tomatoes are about 2ft tall but looking a bit leggy with no flowers yet - here's hoping!

I need some help and wondering if anyone has an answer. I have a Clivia that produced 1 seed pod and question is how do you tell when its ready to plant? It is green now and about the size of a dime and still attached to the plant flower stalk. Since this is an indoor plant I was surprised this happened but the breeze must have been right one day and it got pollinated. Thanks for any help here.

Here's another Texas Mountain Laurel sprouting and the first one I posted beside it. (This was the swollen seed in the earlier pictures.)

Great job, Cameron.

This is the first time I see someone grow kiwi. You told me kiwi's are very attractive vines. So I imagine once you get them going, they are not too hard to take care of except that they don't like the summer heat.

Good luck with your kiwi seedlings!
