I've started trying to grow some stuff from seed lately, so I'm making a little journal for my seedlings.

Of course, as these things go, I should have already started journaling- well, next best is to start now!

Summer '16, I received some Drimia uniflora seeds courtesy of Aiko at the free seed/swap list here. 09/10/17- popping up fast!

09/07/18, whoops, a year later... well, one of the reasons I wanted to start this journal was to aim for more consistent progress photos.

10/16/18- growing well, they all bloomed, but I didn't photograph that, sadly. here's one tiny out of focus bud...

09/19/19- all other bulbs except for the biggest one went to a local cactus group. well, and I kept all the others that popped up in other random pots.

10/21/19- still big and sassy- a whopping .5in!

I also made some haworthia crosses with whatever I could find blooming at the time! At their earlies stages, I don't have any good pictures, because they sure weren't looking good; here they are at bottom right in Sept 2017, sneaking into another picture. But they are alive! Jan 2018, slowly growing: By August 2018, they have some tiny H. reticulata var. hurlingii snuck in to the joint pot and they're definitely ready to be repotted: this one's turning out to be my favorite of the bunch...
.... and finally, big enough to go to someone else with more room, potted up in spring 2019:

You're Haworthia hybrids are really cool!

Thanks Shane! It's really enjoyable to make my own crosses- they aren't anything rare, but it's fun to see how the crosses turn out!
