-Hi David. In recent comment regarding pbs subs. renewal you went on to
give an update on progress of your seeds in their zip lock bags. Now
that seems to me like a lot simpler than plant pots with poly bags
fastened over their tops. 
Whilst simple it might be could you just run through the process of
bagging up the seeds and any definitely dos or don'ts.

The original suggestion from Arnold was to use the standard PayPal 
feature [1]. But I must do better...


I looked at my box of seeds in zip lock bags with damp kitchen towel 
yesterday. This is kept in the garage at outside temperatures.

Germinating were eranthis hyemalis, tropaeoleum speciosum and ixiolirion 
tataricum.

The first two are well known as germinating in the cool.

Thanks for all the replies about snowdrops. I've only got the standard 
Galanthus nivalis, they now have white buds, which have not opened yet.

A note from nature that it is renewing itself.



[1] "add note to seller" (from PayPal credit card) or "add special 
instructions to seller" (from your PayPal account). You can use Ctrl+F 
(browser find, (other key-presses are available) to locate this).
