Grow, little cactus, grow!

I've been trying to organise myself where my seedlings are concerned, and keep track of which ones are still alive and how they are doing. I guess I want to measure my success rate in some way and figure out what has worked and what hasn't.

Anyway, I picked out a particular Echinocereus that I realised I had photos of at various stages of growth. It was sowed in April 2004 from a species mix, so I hope to eventually be able to give it a proper ID. You never know, it might even flower!

So here is its progress from a year old to just over two years old.

I've started working on logs of some other seedlings and plan to take monthly photos so I can look back and watch their progress.
