Re: Bloom & Sprouting


Regarding Marte's question about germinating the I. missouriensis 
seeds--did I soak them before refrigerating--the answer is that I 
didn't do anything except put them in a container, water it well, and 
then stick it in the frig.  Oh, yes, and then I forgot about it, 
though not on purpose.  I would think what I did is replicated in 
your putting them in a pot and planting it in the garden to go 
through the winter there.  Throwing them in a snowdrift is even more 
like the natural way, it seems.  I sure hope some will grow.  
Incidentally, the friend from whom I rec'd my seeds is Ken Martin, 
Thornton, CO, an enthusiast if ever there was one.
