These came really quickly and I am super excited about planting them in the spring.

I haven’t had the plants long enough to judge the mature plant, but the seed germination rate was high – I just sprouted them over the spring in the window using those seed trays with a clear cover. I’ll be transplanting them outside soon. I also debated on cold-stratifying the seeds first (like most of WA state native plants), and DIDN’t, and they still sprouted!

These came really quickly and I am super excited about planting them in the spring. The owner responded to all my questions about the specific details of the plants and growing conditions. I am using these for research and the before process is very important and I was glad that the shop was knowledgeable about the entire process.
