Sarracenia seeds, mixed species and hybrids, 30 seeds.
A selection of seed from our Sarracenias, Flava, Leucophylla, Purpurea and crosses. This packet contains a minimum of 30 seed, and can be sown in the Autumn to germinate after a winter chill period, but I find I get good germination when I plant in June and leave seed undisturbed till the following late Spring/Summer. Sow on the surface of peat or peat/perlite mix and cover with a layer of perlite, stand the seed pot in a tray of shallow rain water, in a sunny place, an unheated greenhouse is fine.
Arisaema ciliatum 25 seeds
One of the easiest Arisaemas to grow , in well drained shade, sheltered from strong winds. Soak the seed in water with a drop of washing up liquid for 24 - 48hrs before sowing the seed in warmth in the spring, cover with a layer of compost , they germinate well in an unheated greenhouse in a semi shaded place.
Packet contents 25 seeds.
Gunnera manicata seed.
Gunnera manicata seed is best sown as fresh as possible although I have sown seed that has germinated reasonably well in spring, so all is not lost if you are reading this in Spring 2020. Surface sow and keep as close to 20 - 25c as possible and moist at all times.
Each packet contains 100 seed.
Cardiocrinum giganteum seed
Cardiocrinum giganteum are native to the Himalayas and westwards to Nepal , a truly stunning plant when in flower which as they are monocarpic they do only once, the main stem will then die but small bulbs will remain at the base and will mature to flower in 5 years. Seeds will take 7 years to reach maturity so this is a long term project but oh so worth the wait! sow seed as fresh as possible and cover with grit, they will need a period of warmth at 15c ( 3 weeks) , then 0-5c ( 3-6 weeks), then back into warmth till germinated, or you can just leave them out and let nature take it's course. Don't throw the seed tray away after 12 months as they may still appear after 2yrs.
Packets contain 50 seeds - £2.50
