Happy Memorial Day, to those whom it applies (and those not, have a happy day anyway). :)
Today was sunny and about 75... adding more to the dryness, unfortunately!
Planted Castilleja coccinea seedlings in Sand Area from fridge dish (4/15).
Planted Galax urceolata, Corydalis sempervirens, and a Platanthera species in acid area, and moved several very-near-death Chimaphila maculata there, too.
Planted some new seeds in a dish with wet soil, and put in fridge. Haven't decided yet how long to leave it in - at least 4 weeks, if not 8+. The seeds were as follows: Fritillaria michailovskyi, Asclepias asperula, Lithospermum officinalis, Asclepias viridis, Fritillaria olivieri, Asclepias sullivantii, Echinacea purpurea alba, Melanthium virginicum, Fritillaria pallidiflora, Asclepias texana, Fritillaria imperialis, Dicentra spectabilis alba, Fritillaria thessala ionica, Fritillaria raddeana, Lilium philadelphicum, Fritillaria acmopetala, Asclepias fruticosa, Arisaema consanguineum, Echinacea atrorubens, Asclepias hirtella, Echinacea angustifolia, Lithospermum multiflorum, Lilium washingtonianum, Zizia aptera, Lilium columbianum, Echinacea tennesseensis, Veratrum nigrum, Fritillaria messanensis gracilis, Dracunculus vulgaris, Veratrum album, Fritillaria latifolia, Asclepias viridiflora, Fritillaria meleagris, Dicentra 'Golden Heart', Fritillaria camschatcensis, Gillenia stipulata, Ruellia humilis, Fritillaria pontica, Asclepias tuberosa, Arum alpinum, Chelone obliqua, Fritillaria bythynica, Lilium canadense, Echinacea pallida, Ariaseam amurense, Lilium superbum, Frasera caroliniensis, Fritillaria involucrata, Ruellia strepens, Arisaema ciliatum, Gillenia trifoliata, Stylophorum diphyllum, Fritillaria montana, Talinum calycinum, Fritillaria graeca graeca, Camassia quamash, Adlumia fungosa, Paris quadrifolia, and Asclepias perennis.
**Germination notes: Caltha leptosepala germinated in dish from 5/8. Ceratotheca triloba and Callirhoe involucrata came up in 5/6 dish.
Noticed what may be a very small Epigaea repens coming up under the Cypripedium parviflorum pubescens in Sand Area.
