Propagating Fern Spores Experiment - update

 

Do you remember , back in August I thought I'd have a little go at growing fern spores .

I didn't say much about it at the time , as I didn't think anything would happen .

I just lay a fern leaf on top of some compost in this little seed pot and up popped these tiny immature fern thingies .

                       Well , lets take a look at them now .

 

          Isn't that amazing ! So sweet .  I guess I'll have to prick them out and pot them on soon .

That could be a bit scary , they look so delicate .

This is where I was growing them . On the bathroom windowsill .

The Orchid is still flowering . Orchid flowers last such a long time .

I'm not all that good at growing Orchids , but I have managed to keep two going on this windowsill . 

Oh , this is the mumma fern . The one with the large leaves . The other one is a Boston Fern .  I just brought them in from the garden , into the porch , to over winter .

Bringing in wood for the fire now , on the other side of the porch . 

I can't resist picking up fir-cones to watch them open up .

                                      All for today  . 

   

                      🌿   Peace and Love and have a great week 🌿🤍🌿

                    

Meanwhile on the Bathroom Windowsill

My Orchid is flowering and an assortment of cuttings are on the go .

 I haven't talked about my little fern spore propagating experiment , because I hadn't thought it would work .

                              Well , looky here ! 

                            It's worked !
