Triodia flava (Purpletop Tridens) [40 Seeds]

Germination Information: I recommend these seeds for experienced seed-starters only, because germination may be slow and irregular.

One option is sowing in fall or winter and leaving the pot outdoors; then the seeds can sprout when conditions are right in spring. (The winter-sowing approach can work well for these seeds.) Or, you could try starting in warm, bright conditions; if no seedlings appear in 4 to 6 weeks, then give the pot an artificial chilling period of about a month.

Either way, I’d suggest surface-sowing (gently press the seeds into the surface of the growing medium). Sow them all in one pot and transplant them (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.
