105 Jacks in a batch

Today I got the Jack-in-the-pulpit (Arisaema triphyllum) plantlets from the 2015 sowing (the first pic is admittedly not of said Jacks, rather that is of the 2016 sowed Jacks) all into their own individual pots at last. Many of them are still only just waking up from their corms which is fine by me as it’d be a LOT harder to repot them from their super-crowded pot if they were all fully awake and emerged.

With them no longer having to compete with their siblings + with me feeding them some granular fertilizer (eventually. For now I’m not giving them even a lick of fert) they should reach floral maturity much quicker (hoping under 2 years but that might be overly optimistic).

In the next few days the 2016-sown Jacks will be next to repot. We’re definitely gonna be reaching the 200+ mark once we got the 2016 Jacks potted up I’m sure. Thank god the greenhouse got a clean out to make for greatly-needed space!
