Here is a follow up on another experiment.  I took 20 Phoenix roebelenii seeds and placed them in this plastic jar that once contained pretzels.  I used the same method as on the past pages.  Used about 2" of red cinder then put in water to the height of the cinder.  This was then covered w/about 6" of potting soil with the seeds placed on top.  Just enough soil was then used to cover the seeds.  This was back in September of 2007.  Of course I placed the cover on the jar to contain the moisture.

This is what it looked like when I unscrewed the cover today January 7th, 2008.
