This is the attempted transplant of a seedling. When I pulled it up it had what I though would be plenty of roots for it to transplant well. This is it a day later. Kinda shriveled but still pliable and still a new little leaf in the middle. I mounded the dirt up a little more in hopes it would keep it from baking when the sun hits it today. I'll go look at it late this evening when it's shaded again.
This is one of several that I was going to pull out anyway since the area is quire crowded. I didn't know how many seeds might sprout so I planted way to many. Still only about half of them sprouted. If I had planted 5 or 6 then I may have only ended up with 1 or 2 plants, maybe 3. As it is, I can pick and choose which plants will keep growing and get rid of the weaker seedlings.
