Germination Notes
Cold stratification is not required. Sow seed on the surface of moist seed-starting mix and cover only very lightly so it receives light. Maintain approximately 65–70°F and do not let the medium dry out. Germination commonly takes 1–4 weeks, depending on seed age and conditions. Harden off seedlings before transplanting after frost danger has passed.
Seed collection year: 2026.
