Sowing Instructions (Cliff Notes Version): Follow the Seed Guide for Annuals. Sow seeds on site in cooler climates in spring and sow in the fall in warmer zones (they don’t transplant well). Don’t cover the seeds. Barely press into the ground as they need light to germinate. Plants have very slow development in the beginning of their vegetation period. Because of this, competition of weeds is very high in early stages so it’s very important to control weeds effectively in the first 50 days after sowing.

The time taken for perennial seeds to germinate varies from species to species. Some take a few weeks or months while others need up to 2 years. Not all seeds germinate at the same time and most species DO NOT have a 100% germination rate. Some species need to be chilled, scarified or soaked in water in order to germinate. This applies to several species of vines, trees, shrubs, tropicals and large seeds.
COLD STRATIFY ALL PERENNIALS, SHRUB & TREE SEEDS for at least 30 days unless the plant specific instructions indicate a longer period of stratification.
If you are unsure of the best way to germinate the seeds, pls DO NOT SOW ALL THE SEEDS. Keep some in case the germination method you use doesn’t work.
Some of the seeds we offer are more tailored to experienced gardeners. If you are new to gardening, you might want to start with annuals such as Petunias or Snapdragons.
