I know they're not much to look at yet but still excited... Crambe maritima baby. Crambe cordifolia baby.

They look terrific. I'd be over the moon. Much better than I've ever done. Never had a single one germinate!

I read recently that germination improves if you remove the seed from the corky shell. There is some suggestions that a soak in some salt water (non iodized) helps germination rates too,mouth nothing definitive. Mona give my seeds a go again after removal of seed shell.

My seeds were out of the shell and I was supposed to soak for two days (accidentally went three), they swell up greatly.
The soaking instructions were for the cordifolia but I figured if it's good for one it'll work for the other. Germination is coming along, got one more of each lifting above the soil four days later.

That's encouraging; maybe I'll give them a third try.
