If you recall, earlier this month I was delighted that the wintersweet seeds had shown life in the form of a taproot. Today, after fretting about not seeing any progress, I gently dug down into the loamy soil and found the plant. It seems that the taproot pulled the seed, first leaf and all, farther down. It may have found its way up into the air and light, but I helped it a bit and set the leaf above the soil.
Also the Cold Bernie with Mittens at the Inauguration memes…
Delightful!

Grow, little wintersweet, grow!
And yes, Cold Bernie with Mittens is very funny.
