Imperial Masterpiece
About a month ago I found these two volunteer coastal Douglas firs near my doorstep. I put their roots in a little ball of damp sphagnum and crammed that into these little accent pots, along with a few prills of Osmocote. Aren't they cute? .
It is hard to believe that they will become 80+ foot tall monsters, sometimes adorned by a bald eagle instead of a Christmas angel, like their parents across the street from my house; but they will, should they live for about another century.
The possibly odd thing about them is that I don't remember them being there (by my doorstep) last summer. The fact that these two babies have buds, though, does say that they didn't sprout this spring - which leaves me with two possibilities:

- my memory is faulty - these seedlings were actually there last summer OR
- these actually sprouted late last fall.
