Seeds Tough to Sprout

Very good news (for a tree nut)...

Of my two-hundred dawn redwood seeds, I finally had a second germination in one of my seed/soil baggies. In a few days, when some green starts to show, I'll plant the new sprout and upload a photo. In the meantime, I'm not going to wait around for another -- I just ordered five-hundred more seeds from a different vendor to try a shotgun approach :) Even with a low germination rate, I should get a few sprouts out of the bunch. And, just for one last insurance policy, I'm also going to try to get some seeds from a local arboretum.

I don't know why these seeds are so stubborn...
