I must admit to driving my housemates crazy with my daily report on the progress of my plants. I am really chuffed that all my chillies came up, even the one that was sold with a warning as difficult to germinate.
The only disappointment has been the Okra which has steadfastly refused to sprout.

I am having the same problem with my hostas. A month gone by and nothing, not even a peak at the outside world from one of them and I planted 50+ seeds. In fairness, Thompson and Morgan's cultural advice did say they were difficult to germinate, so maybe I have messed up.
I have also just sown some New Zealand Flax (Phormium), the packet says they take between one and six months to germinate. This may stretch my enjoyment of the waiting just a bit too far!
