Re: Lenten Rose

Hi Jennifer

Sorry do not know of any seed sources within your area
but have some germination notes for you as follows:

After sowing the seed keep for 6 weeks at 20oC with 
constant humidity then place in fridge or a cool area at 0-6oC.
Raise temperature gradually up to 10oC until germination is
completed.  If the warm or cold period was not long enough the 
seeds will not germinate until the following year.

Once you have plants remember they do not like to be 
distibured so plant them in the position you want them permantly.
