Seeds and sowing.

I ordered some seeds as i said,,one batch come in last Tuesday ,so today i got ready for sowing tomorrow.These will be more for pots and borders outside,,but who knows,maybe some ends up in show room.    Sometimes pelargoniums have difficulty to brake seed cover,so to help to germinate i found on internet one interesting tip,,before sowing soak pelargonium seeds for night,and use very hot water for it.So i did that today,and tomorrow i will sow them.  There is one more interesting method ,what you can use if you sow very rare seeds of pelargoniums,,i didn't use it yet. There it is   As promised there is my pelargonium BrunswickAnd at end,,look at this foliage,,is it not beautiful?!''Bronze Butterfly''

  1. Liga - I have used Cliff Blackman's method to sow species seeds, but prefer to slice of a minute bit at the pointed end of the seed, and then use Cliff's petri dish method. I'll email copy of first method I use.
