Just a couple shots, probably only of interest to serious Utricophiles. I took them because I recalled Taylor had mentioned that nothing was known about the seed to adult plant process. Figured I'd try to fill the void a little. 2 different germinants   |

I'll be interested to see how quickly they grow. I sowed a couple of varieties a few weeks ago and am awaiting germination myself. Not sure how viable the seed was though.

Given the source of mine I was suprised to see germination myself. Up to 4 now if my eyes are correct. I plan on giving them another week in the tray and then I am going to switch them over to the aquatic set up I have going for the adult plants I got. see how they do there... |

I'm thinking that mine are probably from the same source and the same locations. Let's hope that mine do the right thing.

FWIW I am running mine on a fluxuating tray system. Filled to the point where the water is level with the media and then let it go till the water is almost gone.

I'm happy to report that seed of one of the forms has begun to germinate. My pots are kept with the waterlevel just above the surface with the level allowed to drop to about a centimetre below the surface before topping up.
Which location are yours from Travis? Are both of the germinants of yours from the same form or different ones?

Mine are from "The Lakes". Only form I got seed for.
Had 7 germinants when I dropped the pot into the fully aquatic set up. Did that just before leaving for the holiday weekend and have not checked the status since I got back. Probably should do that this evening...

Same location as has germinated for me. The other from Cape Le Grand shows no signs of germination yet.
