My Career In Forestry
Tue Jul 02 2013

    So, I was trolling along on http://pinterest.com/ the other day and saw this compelling image... aad1f71670adced9da6d6fbde02faeca   A tiny forest in a teacup! Forest of what? Lemon seedlings. So I went to the web site and found out how to plant them. You have to cut off the fibrous outer coating of the lemon seeds with a sharp knife... [you will have to put on your Zen pants to do that, it's time consuming] and then plant them in moist soil. I covered my container with saran wrap to keep the moisture in. It took 8 days, but look what is happening! Lemon   I don't know about you, but I don't think I will ever get over the miracle of seeds. EVER.

    I agree. Little miracles waiting to happen. I love the little forest in the cup.
