Re: Delphinium germination
Hi,
Dont give up hope! I had magnificent germination from Dowdswells New Zealand
seed. Question?
Did you give your seed a cold treatment, It really helps!Sow them moist or
place the pots that you already have in the fridge for two weeks then you
will start to see something, not all will germinate at once so do not throw
away those seed pots or give up hope.
