So after researching how to grow new baby orchids, i then decided to look into growing new hibiscus plants. (they have a much shorter wait time for first blooms and are a bit easier to germinate)
anyway - just thought i would share my seedling pics
i have the herd, about 12 seedlings around a year old or so..
and the babies, germinated 15 days ago
i likely already posted the pic of the first seedling bloom i got..

a mini version of its pod parent...not overly surprising
I find it rather interesting that no one knows what the original pollinator of tropical hibiscus was. all current crosses are done by humans...
