🙁 Phase 1 appears to have failed. I planted seeds in containers and none came up. Not sure of germination rate for these, so I will try again with more seed starting mix.

🏡 🌿 Also, I will plant directly into prepared ground. I have hundreds of seeds and will plant them in different ways and in different areas to see what works and to ensure as many as possible survive.

Continuing the #NativePlant odyssey!

🌻 I now possess the ordered Keystone Plant seeds and have planted some of a goldenrod species.

🦋 These needed to be kept for *60 days* in wet cool treatment, which was a surprise to me because it was not mentioned in the general description on the nursery's web site. Clear instructions were provided by the nursery, though.
