I still only have 1 yellow L.henryii, and it looks bad. I hate the peat based mix I used for them; it makes overwatering too easy. I've been babying it and only water a few drops at a time, so we'll see. I've been mixing my own medium with lots of leafy compost as you described and am loving the results. I've started some seed and transplanted several annual seedlings into it and they all seem very happy. The Pink Mist Zant seedlings are getting big in it too!

Cant wait to see your baby pics!

Remember the Lathrys vernus seed you sent me? Those babies are slow, but patience pays off. I started some inside under lights in December, and here is what a couple of pots of the pink look like. One of the purple is just starting to emerge too. I have containers of both wintersown too, but wanted to try both ways for increased odds.
