Growing Hydrastis canadensis; work with nature

Propagation, Wildflowers of North America

Today, I continue to record the cultivation of goldenseal, Hydrastis canadensis, in my garden. A reminder that this is an endangered species in its wild habitat! Last year one plant even produced a small fruit and what to do with few seeds? I sowed them of course; now they are starting to germinate, on the same time the adult plants are emerging from the ground.

The beautiful sight of Hydrastis canadensis emerging from the ground yesterday, May 4th 2020

Especially when growing native species it is important to work in sync with nature in your garden. This is also a good occasion to let you know that there is a wealth of good gardening eBooks on sale until May 21.

Those interested, please see the link below for the Earth Day Special on ALL gardening eBooks!
