One of the 4 C. eximium accessions had purple cotyledons and looks like will have purple on the leaves too.

That was kinda a surprise.  The other 3 accessions had green cotyledons.  Here is one of them just starting to sprout.  When I see the radicle forming I cover them with the ProMix VFT until they sprout.  Something new I'm playing with this year (surface sowing) & am liking it very much so far.

Is Ulupica simply a local name or a specific species or variety?
