Description
We can call Polygala major the queen of pink Polygalas! It forms a tight clump with long stems covered in bright fuchsia flowers during early summer; sometimes it will reflower later in the season.
I fall in love with this species years ago, after seeing it in the rock gardens of Wrigthman Alpines. The hard part was to source a few seeds so I can grow it; seeds of all Polygala spp. are so very hard to catch.
But once we have seeds it is actually a very easy species to grow in a sunny/good drainage location.
Germination: warm germinator, you really don’t need many seeds. If started early the seedlings can be transplanted in the ground in the first year (they may even produce few flowers!). Fresh seeds benefit from a period of dry/cold storage before sowing (post-maturation).
