All were planted on the same day & are now starting to show strong signs of growth. Only 1 out of 20 Gladi bulbs have actually broken dirt, however approximately 8 from 14 or so Sunflowers have sprouted. The red tub containing dozens of mixed wildflower seeds have sprouted all over, with tiny little seedlings. These will include Tea Tree, Kangaroo Paws, Swan River Daisies & other varieties that right now escapes me. Over the next few weeks they will be uncovered from their handmade propogation housings & be allowed to fight the elements in the "Real World". The Sunflowers will be moved eventually to nearer the Vegie patches to allow pollination from Bees etc. The Gladis can grace the front verandah once strong enough.
