Germination experiment. How about yours?

Josephine, Arlington, TX(Zone 8a)

Just for fun I decided to see if Purple Coneflower seed would germinate in the Summer.
I scattered the seed on June 5th and two weeks later it was up, with temperatures over 90 degrees,
actually close to 100, here in Texas.
I do water every day, and they are doing great, which goes to show that some seeds do germinate in the heat of summer.
Here is the seed bed.
