EN: seedling, seed for planting
The OG of 'plantito/plantita' culture. Before you bought that succulent from the garden store, someone had to deal with this tiny thing. It's the promise of future ulam or a pretty flower. It's potential in a packet, just add water, soil, and a lot of hope.
From Spanish 'semilla' (seed).
'Buto' is more common for seed in general (e.g., seed of a fruit you're eating). 'Similya' or 'punla' specifically refers to seeds for planting or young seedlings.
