  Ok,now that you’ve seen some of my indoor plants,lets see how the daylily seedling are doing.As you can see     they have grown quite a bit since last posted.

Here you can see my little   Arisaema triphyllum.They have been in the fridge since fall,for their cold treatment.I planted 6 seed just to see.The rest of the seed will stay in cold storage till spring. Just could not wait.Had to try a few.

And lets not forget the Hostas…

  I don’t know the name of this one.I just call it Greenie.

Yeah,I know what your think…”You live in zone 5 and it’s January,way too early to be starting plants”. Well, maybe,but so what.These are for the most part Perennials anyway and going to be in the coldframe by the 1st of April,hopefully. Just in time for me to start my petunias.Waves.100 of them.

  This is a tray of cuttings that I took last fall just before the firrst hard frost. You see here…Catharanthus roseus (Madagascar periwinkle ),Vinca Vine Expoflora, a Hollyhock seedling and Pelargonium x hortum cv ‘Vancouver Centennial’ Geranium
that I picked up at the home and garden show last spring.  Here’s a better shot at it.Isn’t it nice?
