Well This is a Surprise!

The Portulaca molokiniensis seeds only took a few days to germinate.  I used the plastic wrap tent method and three have already popped up.  The literature I've read said two months - these popped up in three days.  Noe originally thought the first may have been a weed - but with two others behind it, we have ruled that out.

If I can get these to grow out, I will have cracked a big nut in being able to propagate ihi!  I say that because some of the other seeds I've germinated haven't made it - mortality is pretty high with seedlings.  I'm pretty excited - stay tuned.
