Geez, Sally!

How big are any of the Wintersweet Shrub seedlings I gave you by now????
Can't be more than a few inches???? Maybe a foot? When did I give them to you?

Must be big enough that you could transplant them.....
Mine are now in full bloom--but, b/c the weather is so transitional, and cold,
they do not have that sweet fragrance they usually do.

I recently added about 4 pictures on PF on the Wintersweet Shrub.
Go see them......
Also--I would love to see a picture of yours and how they are doing....

My most appreciative receiver of a zillion seeds of this is "Rockymea" in Toronto.
She is Chinese--and she told me that the Wintersweet Shrub has a very special
meaning to Chinese people. She also said that--a growing seedling could be
sold for about $30 there.
I sent her about 30 seeds. They are as big as beans...28 of them germinated for her...

Each envelope I send of seeds from this plant also has a "How to Germinate' paper
included. Thanks to Terry (DG Adm.) .

I must collect about 1000 seeds from this Shrub every year....

Almost desperate as to what to do with them.....

This picture is of all the seeds I have collected in ONE year (*2008)
That is a big soup bowl--and that is, also, a TBS. in the bowl...

HELP!!!
