Seedling Progress Report

Tags: seedlings , coleus , hollyhocks , daylily , leeks
My coleus, just 3 months old, are growing at a snail's pace, but are delightful, nonetheless. They have a few sets of leaves and are beginning to develop color. The hollyhocks are 1 1/2 months old and about 4 inches tall with several-- 5-6 --true leaves. The daylily, about 4 weeks old, has three grass-like leaves, the tallest being about 3 inches. The balloon flowers, larkspur, malva zebrina, and blue flax have just begun sprouting and signs of their first true leaves are beginning to emerge. Still waiting on the begonias and foxgloves and a pot of blue fescue seeds, as well as some additional daylilies and coleus. And I just sowed some leek seeds as they take 150 days (that's 5 months!!) to reach maturity. I plan on planting them in succession so that there will be leeks throughout the summer into fall.
