One is mine, Veronica Goodness Grows, a low growing one. The other is V Fairytales, a silvery pink from the robin. I put the baggies of vermiculite in the frig this morning. We'll see if it makes a difference.

Dome, are your verbascum seeds from your garden? They sound lovely.

The heat mat may be making things too warm now that the real cold spell is over, so I unplugged it. I think this group needs 68, not 75, and that may have contributed to the problem. The Platys loved the heat, bless their little hearts. They drove me crazy for a couple of years until I pre-soaked and used the Deno method. I'll figure these little ones out too, one of these days.

Meanwhile the Aquilegias with the hugely developed roots transplanted without a hitch. Also the Dianthus moved with no roots at all, all are growing well. Yippee!

The other Aquilegia, Maggie Mae... A few days ago I took the last 3 seeds that were stuck to the plastic bag and tried again, in a 2" pot in a baggie in front of a partly open window. BTW, I googled that name and nothing came up. Do you know anything more about her? I think you said she's purple?
