Not much to report in these winter days - I have a few more digitalis seedlings that seem to be intermediates - some of them still in the house, some enduring what was the coldest night of this winter so far outside - -7°C should be no problem for anything besides those containing d. obscura - all D. canariensis-seedlings of which i haven\'t decided wether they are hybrids or not are of course in the house. I\'m still waiting for my lutea/purpurea hybrid to flower, seems all the digitalis take 2 years to flower if I sow tem in late summer when the seed is ripe.

The photo shows one Nigella damascena which sneaked into a hibernating pot plant - I have stopped to try to make indoor generations of those as they always stay small and fragile - but with the LED-Lighting they definitely make interesting photo models...
