Sidalcea glaucescens

Dreaming of late summer flowers in our garden.  :)



Ribes lasianthum

Our Sierra Nevada Ribes species have interesting flowers very early in the late winter. The fruit is attractive and attracts wildlife to the garden. It will be awhile before any are ready to plant out.

James, that's wonderful!

But would you kindly tell us the most important part of your finding:

- How was the seed stored for all those years?

In a tiny polyethylene zippy bag, inside a larger polyethylene zippy bag with a few packets of silica gel (=bone dry) in a refrigerator drawer at approximately 1° C. :)

My small Mexican collection. Eryngium and Draba were collected at high alt. in Nevado de Toluca, it will be interesting to see how they'll do here. All warm germinators.
