Geranium root stock

My overwintered bald-rooted geraniums, which have hung upside down downstairs in a dark storage room, brought upstairs and trimmed. Placed in a mix of moist peat moss and Perlite, started today, January 26, 2014. There's one more in the kitchen that I potted a few days ago.

I was surprised that I only had 13 plants. I guess all the long stems on those overgrown, woody plants, made them look like many more. (I wasn't going to try and root just the stems I trimmed off.

According to the instructional video I watched these should start sprouting leaves at their bases in about 4 weeks.
