I posted a pic of this little seedling earlier. I resolved after many comments from others that it was much too early for a Y on this seedling and therefore it must be vegetative growth. So I've waited and still this seedling grows extremely slow unlike the other seedling that sprouted at the same time and now are nearly a foot tall.

After seeing Monika's picture she posted on a leaf from the flowering region after a Y has formed I just had to take pictures of this seedling again.

Now I am convinced this was a Y. I hope you can see the irregularity in the small leaf which is only 1.7 cm long.

Poppysue sent me these seeds and they were labelled "? Pink"
There were about 8 seeds and six have sprouted. They are extremely slow to germinate compared to seeds of B. suaveolens and Eric's B. "Isabella" hybrid crosses. They also grow veryyyyyyyy slow!!

The seedling is now 2 months old and they get the same fertilization routine as all my other brug seedlings. I waited for the third set of leaves to develop and now I'm going to pot this one up into a 2 gallon container.
