If you have a question about the available quantity, please contact me before placing your order. Germination Information: I recommend these only for gardeners who have experience with seeds that require or benefit from a cold-moist period to germinate. One approach is to surface-sow the seeds in a pot in fall to early winter, setting them outdoors then so they can get a natural chilling period and germinate when conditions are right in spring to early summer. (The winter-sowing technique can work nicely for this species.) I’ve also had some luck with direct-sowing in a nursery bed; seeds I sowed on November 8 were well up when I thought to look for them on June 10; your experience may vary. If you sow after January, consider giving the pot an artificial chilling period of about 2 months. I’ve read that it’s possible for these seeds to germinate (though perhaps at a less than optimal percentage) if you sow them in warm, moist, bright conditions. But if you try that and no seedlings appear after a month or so, then try the artificial chilling period. I haven’t tried sowing this way myself, so can’t say how well it works. Note that this information will not be on the seed packet you receive. Please read the description as well before ordering.
