Sporobolus heterolepis (Prairie Dropseed) [30 Seeds]

Germination Information: The easiest approach is to start the seeds (gently pressed into the surface of the moist growing medium) outdoors from mid-fall to mid-winter, so they can get a natural chilling period and sprout when conditions are right. It’s possible that the seeds may germinate in warm conditions—though perhaps at a less than optimal percentage—either indoors in late winter to mid spring or outdoors from late spring to midsummer. But if no seedlings appear after a few weeks, then try providing an artificial chilling period of about a month.

Transplant the seedlings (in groups) to individual pots when they’re 1 to 2 inches tall. Use groups of 6 to 10 or so if you want bigger clumps faster, or 3 or 4 per pot if you want a larger number of starter plants.

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