Germination
As with many perennials, these seeds require a period of moist cold to help them break dormancy. This is done by giving them a cold 'winter' period (artificial or natural), and then a warming to simulate 'spring', and time to grow! Here's how this can be done:
Obtain a planting container that has
holes in the bottom for excess water to drain. Place the seeds just under the surface of your growing medium, and water. Place your container in a cold area (but not freezing, perhaps a refrigerator) for 4-6 weeks. Once the cold period is completed, place the container at room temperature for them to germinate. Be sure to keep the soil moist during this entire germination period.
Alternatively, these seeds can also be planted outdoors in fall, winter, or early spring, while temperatures are still cold (but ground is workable) to germinate naturally in spring. Be sure to mark the area where you planted them, and that the soil is
consistently
moist.
Note, seeds may first form a root underground for a period of time before sprouting above ground, which may take some time. Patience is required for starting these seeds, but they are well worth the wait!

Due to seed inventory shortages, and increased demand, shop early for best selection! Once sold out, we will no longer have seeds for this growing season. Orders are reserved when placed!
Ornamental use only. Do not eat any of our seeds, or the plants or parts that they produce! Due to the fact that about 80% of all plant species are not edible to humans and/or animals (contain toxins/poisons of some kind) these are likely to be poisonous.
