Comments: 11,300-14,600 seeds/lb. Seed may be sown without a scarification and you will see some germination. Seed has a hard seed coat and an immature embryo. Hard seed coat may be scarified sufficiently in the cleaning process. If you put a sample in water and the seed swells it is sufficiently scarified. Seed soaked in water may swell too fast and damage the seed. Thought to be a fixer of atmospheric nitrogen but this is currently under dabate.
Germination info: Seed requires a mild scarification followed by a short cold stratification.
A Trial Packet contains a minimum of 5 - 30 seeds depending on the size of the selected seed.
