Early August seeds collections
The latest seeds collected: Uvularia grandiflora, Trillium flexipes, Paeonia officinalis, Paeonia mascula and Delphinium fissum.
The first seeds are also ripening on Roscoea schneideriana – in the image above; the green capsules of Roscoea will split up unexpectedly, watch them closely if you need to collect the seeds.
Speaking about species which need to be sown asap or kept moist packed, a couple of weeks ago, together with Streptopus amplexifolius, by good chance, seeds of Erythronium grandiflorum, the glacier lily, were also collected (in the mountains of SE BC).
Don’t miss the chance, such species are collected and offered only every 2-3 years (at the very best).
The first version of the Seeds list will emphasize on species which require to be sown by late summer/early fall for best germination results.
Stay tuned….
