As with seed #15, this little guy really surprised me. I had all but given up on the outside seeds, switching to the indoor baggie method for the rest of my bristlecone seeds. Apparently they're not doing as badly as I thought. I guess I shouldn't be surprised - bristlecones are known for drought tolerance and growing in unforgiving climates. It was interesting to see five cotyledons too - I haven't seen this with any of my other tree seedlings yet.
