Gillenia stipulata (American Ipecac) [15 Seeds]

$4.50

Germination Information: I recommend these seeds for experienced seed-sowers only, because they can require a good bit of patience.

The easiest approach is to sow the seeds (about 1/8″ deep) in fall to late winter, setting them outdoors in a spot protected from mice so they can germinate when conditions are right.

Some references suggest that cycling between warm and cold temperatures can enhance germination rates. If you want to try this, sow and keep in warm (70°F) conditions for 2 to 3 months, then move the pot to cold temperatures (either a refrigerator for 2 to 3 months before moving back to warmth, or set outside in late winter or early spring for sprouting when conditions are right).

Note that this information will not appear on the seed packet you receive.
