Last year, my friend from Turkey was kind enough to send me some Japanese Red Maple seeds collected from his own weeping crimson queen tree!

: )

I placed them in moist soil in a plastic container, and put them in my fridge last September 27th for a cold-stratification period. Just last night I opened up the container, and noticed that all the seeds have a white root coming out of them!

: o

It only took 5-6 months! Looks like I've got a few good seedlings and they've already been potted up....

Will show more shots as things progress along...
