I bought 3 Myrciaria Strigipes seeds from Bellamy Trees last fall with the hopes of getting 2 to successfully germinate and grow so I could keep one and give the other to a coworker who trades plants and seeds with me. I put them in peat moss and Agripro dry to give them the best chance of taking off. Over the winter, all 3 sent down roots and two started growing a stem in February:

The 3rd had a great root system but just didn’t send out a stem. I let it be. In the mean time, the other two kept growing and now look like this:

Lo and behold, I look at #3 and it’s finally growing above ground. Over 6 months after it was planted:
