PEROVSKIA atriplicifolia

Russian Sage

SOLD OUT.

Germination: Slightly difficult. Start seed in late winter to early spring. Freeze seed packet for 7 days prior to sowing. Sow seed on surface of good seed starting mix which you have premoistened - do not cover seeds with mix. Gently press seeds into mix. Place container inside sandwich to retain moisture. Place container in a cold/cool sheltered location such as an unheated garage or patio in late winter or early spring. Start checking for germination in 45 days. Remove baggie gradually once germination begins. (Seems to germinate best with fluctuating outdoor temperatures.)
