Paul - interesting...the cotyledons of yours look somewhat different than the one posted by Beth here

I wonder if Beth's will look more like yours after a couple of days...

Thanks for the photo...

TTY,...

Yes, my older seedlings start looking like Pauls when they get their first true leaves.

How intersting! Can you tell me the name of these? I would love to find some seeds for a new pond going in this spring.

Shelly, these are Ipomoea aquatica...and be careful, they might just take over your whole pond!

Thanks Beth! I will go look them up, and be sure not to let them take over LOL. Thank you for the warning.
