Sanguinaria canadensis (Bloodroot) [15 Seeds]

Germination Information: I recommend these seeds for experienced seed-starters only, because germination can be very slow and irregular, and they require patience. It is important that they do not dry out after collection, and apparently they need a cold-moist period, then a warm-moist period, and then a cold-moist period to germinate. For those reasons, I have mixed the seeds with a small amount of moist vermiculite, and they have been moist-cold stored since June 10, 2021. They will be ready to start a 60- to 90-day warm period around mid-August; then they need another cold-moist period to encourage sprouting. Obviously, bloodroot is not easy from seed, but it’s worth the challenge if you want to add it to your garden and don’t have access to starter plants (which are also very difficult to find).

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