It's the one planted two weeks ago. I hope this one makes it. The paper coffee cup is inside the van, staying warm and moist in its cup. Hopefully now that I am in warmer climes at least one seed will survive and prosper. I am determined to have at least one tree grow from the many seeds I collected last summer.
The question now remains: where would I plant it?!

The acacia seedlings died
From the cold, most likely. I planted two more yesterday, now that it should start warming up again.
My acorns are probably not going to sprout, either.

Two months away
My garden is in Arizona and I'm still in Texas. However, since I love growing things I have collected various acorns, placed them in old coffee paper cups and now have about nine acorns growing roots on my balcony. I don't even know all the species, but the majority of the acorns are from my neighborhood. In another month they should be ready for transplanting.
The rest of my garden is dormant but in March I'll be back in full swing. In June when the overnight temperatures get warm, I will plant my first acacias. I can't wait!
