One hundred 2017 - winter batch completed

Русский

One hundred new sequoias inhabit their winter quarters for the next 2017 growing season.


The stickers with a * are from 2016 seed batch and without a * are from 2013 batch. Both batches were purchased from J.L. Hudson in California.

Another look at the left and the right sides of the tray. It already happened many times that when I try to find the earliest pictures of some of the successful sequoias after three years it's hard to find them. Hopefully with these wide angle shots I will have at least something on the very early days of the giants. The tray consists of two 7x7 square bins connected together for a total of 98:

#303 germinated quickly and developed better than other early samples. It shows significant growth of its secondary needles:
#303 December 24. 3 weeks old.

Norway spruce grows well as well.
