IT'S ALIVE!!!

It's official, I have the very beginnings of several seedlings already. I noticed the first signs of seedling life late Monday night. I had tried to take pictures but couldn't get anything close and detailed enough...that is until my mom provided me with the uh-huh moment: close up mode, duh. Why I hadn't thought of it I don't know, but even with this setting I can't get quite what I need to show you what exactly is emerging from such small seeds. Regardless, here they are.

Here are my Hollyhock seedlings emerging. They were the first ones to appear.

Here is a picture of what they will look like by the middle of summer. Some can reach 8 feet tall as my mother can attest to.

Next up: Sweet Alyssum. I have to say that I was more than a little surprised to see growth so soon since I just planted these seeds last night. That's right, it has only been 24 hours and you can clearly see that something is already coming out of that little seed. There are quite a few too.

Destined to be...

Last but not least, and almost unnoticed, my little Dichondra seedling.

These little guys won't be covered in colorful flowers, but they have their own sense of charm.

And you thought you would have a little more time before you would have to endure ridiculous numbers of pictures of nonsense, but you were soooooo wrong.
