Comments: Seed sold by the seed. Prices are 500 seeds 72.65 and 1000 seeds 145.30. Sowing media temperature of 70-75 Deg. F. Non stratified seed will germinate but the stratified seed germinates faster, more uniform and at a higher % rate. Plants seem to be self infertile so seed produced from plantings of just one individual clone will have a very low viability of below 10%. Seed from groups of mixed individuals produce cut tests in the range of 40-80% pending crop year conditions. Flowers are white with a yellow center.
Germination info: We recommend 30 days cold moist stratification prior to sowing.
A Trial Packet contains a minimum of 5 - 30 seeds depending on the size of the selected seed.
