Congratulations! They are going to love your climate.

Haha.
I hope they love the intense heat of the summer.

They are so tiny and vulnerable. I don't know when your really hot months are, but i imagine it will be hot when they still are so very young. I would recommend protecting the seeds with some form of sunscreen until they can put down some good roots.

I could easily relocate them under shade. Would that work?

Exciting stuff. Only we understand!

Oh yes @Klona, i think it would work. The little ones will want lots of light but not direct sun until they are older. They will grow up and love you for the care knowing how close they became to being toast. What an adorable seedling it is. Maybe on this thread you will post photos as it (they?) grow(s)? I would love to see.

Yes, I plan to post progress.
