 These are some of the seedlings that have grown from the germinating seeds that I extracted from mature Deodar cedar cones just a few weeks ago. It looks like every seed that was planted has come up. I'm keeping them slightly on the dry side to try to minimise the possibility of "damping off" which is caused by a fungal disease and once infected would cause the death of probably all seedlings in a few days. At the moment they look strong and vigourous. So fingers crossed  The same pot of seeds 4 weeks later and looking good!

I hope that it will grow beautifully by time. Cedrus Deodara is not famous here in our country that is why whenever I see them, I get so happy. I really like that plant even though it is not attractive when it is still a seed. My mom loves planting, too. Unfortunately, one of the disadvantages of plants is that, it is quite risky for mosquitoes. Recently, I had dengue because of mosquito bites. My mom was bit disappointed, but I said that she continue planting because that what she wants. 16/10/2013 06:23:52
Everyone should plant a sapling in his or her life once.
