Hello Holly,
Will pass along something to you that was told to me when I first started my
nursery. If you go ahead and sow the seeds now you will have them for sale....
eventually. If you do not you will have to purchase them from someone else... if
you can find them. I have Trilliums coming up in next year's catalog that I sowed
the seed for 5 years ago. Only regret is that I did not sow more. One is quite
rare and is almost sold out already..... before it gets into the catalog. Word
gets around on the rare and hard to find.
Just don't forget to have a good time. Gene
