Seedlings – How are they?…

By geekgardener, on June 3rd, 2009%

Exactly a month before, the seedlings in these posts were lying motionless in a tiny airtight packet. It was in one of my previous post, they began their journey of life and here they are ..

Coleus Mix:

The seed packet promised that Its a mix of brilliant colors. The colors are brilliant no doubt not sure how much “mixed” they are.. anyway its not the seedling’s fault.

French Marigold:

They are growing at a very fast and steady pace. With last few days in Bangalore having unpredictable weather, the sunshine in the balcony is feeble and it shows up right there in the plants.

Here is Tithonia with a lush green foliage. They look so fresh especially in the morning.

Haa..With a title like this, you might have clicked it immediately to witness some beautiful indian bombshells… if you did so, dont worry ..

It happens..

Nevertheless, the cuties of this post won’t dissapoint you.

Remember, last sunday I had sown some seeds, its time to check their progress.

First came French marigold in record time of 3 days.( actually I could see the cotyledons in 2 days).

While I was closely observing all these seedlings, something just caught my attention.. There is one seedling with 3 cotyledons.. ( Tricotyledons??!). May be its a ‘sport’. Anyways here it is for your viewing pleasure. Carefully look at the seedling in the bottom of the picture below.
