Whether you live in New York or New Delhi, Sunari will happily provide you with a Hibaku seed (depending on what variety will thrive in your planting zone ). Beyond that, he respectfully asks that participants join his Facebook page and document via photographs, video and/or blogging the progression of your Hibaku seed's growth. His Tree Project blog is devoted to citizen Hibaku seed caregivers, offering them a place in the spotlight to shine as brightly as the seed they've been entrusted to look after. Sunari diligently documents their individual successes throughout the weeks, always commemorating the event of germination with an accompanying photo and a few congratulatory statements. Whether you're seeking your 15 minutes of fame or you are simply inspired by this humble yet honorable mission, please contact Sunari at treeprojects@gmail.com for further information on how to get started.

Minneapolis, MN: Paul Schmelzer's Persimmon seed sprouted on Sun, Jun 21, 2009 and I posted these extensive documentations by Paul. He also gave us a tip to get the seeds to sprout. It is a wisdom from his mother. If you would like to see more of his pictures, please go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/eyeteethblog/sets/72157618540377972/ Also, Paul writes about art and activism. His writings can be read at http://eyeteeth.blogspot.com/ "Hey Hiroshi, I got a sprout! I'm not sure if it's a Persimmon or a Japanese holly, though (it's kind of a big sprout, so I wonder if it's a Persimmon). A tip from my mom: if seeds aren't sprouting, put a plastic grocery-store bag over it after watering and put a rubber band to keep it on the pot. After a few days check to see if anything's sprouted. That's what worked for me." --- Paul Schmelzer Congrats, Paul!! A recent update of Persimmon sprout at http://www.flickr.com/photos/eyeteethblog/sets/72157618540...
