Some more interesting winter babies or seedlings at least

This lot are doing well for winter, with 2 degrees celcius in the air this morning!

Iam quite surprised for the middle of winter that they are doing fairly well, there have been a couple of winter casualties so the cool conditions are there to kill palms. With six weeks of winter so far it started off as warm start but that soon ended when the whales started to migrate north from Antarctica (I think @Jonathan organised them to bring his cold weather with them!)

Do far so good with this lot it just goes to show a little zone pushing and willing to take the risk on seeds the rewards are there, Ive had more winter winners than losers, so that’s saying something about the odds in my favour in my climate!

And they are not even in my greeenhouse or hothouse, just outside under the verandah on the NE side of the house dry and not wet in the rain. Cold wet conditions is what gets your seedlings, not this batch!

So far so good!
