0114Marko Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 Please can anyone advise the best size/time to prick out D. capensis seedlings. I inevitably sowed the seeds too thickly due to their minute size and would welcome some advice. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tropfrog Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 They looks like ready to separate now. Br Magnus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0114Marko Posted January 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2022 Just thought I would share this : now done and all looking well albeit a bit lost sitting on their own ! Looking forward to them colouring up when we get some sunshine !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Very nice! But are you sure they are D. capensis? Look more like a D. rotundifolia to me. Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Well, fancy that! All my D. capensis have elongate leaves, nothing like the ones in the photo which look like little table tennis bats. Is it just because they are so young, Stephen?

0114Marko Posted March 21, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 Hi Guy, Thank you, yes Stephen is correct, they are definitely D. capensis from seed which I collected from my mother plant. After initially having round leaves they now have the more typical elongated leaf with each one getting longer as the plants grow...

Guy Posted April 6, 2022 Report Share Posted April 6, 2022 Interesting! I have capensis seedlings growing all over the place and, I must admit, I've never studied them that closely. They are just weeded out when they get big. I'll keep a closer eye on them now! Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
