This dwarf cultivar belongs to the Myrtaceae family and typically reaches a height of 2 to 3 feet, with a similarly compact spread. It features small, needle-like leaves that are aromatic when crushed, releasing a delightful fragrance. During the late spring to early summer, 'Nana' is adorned with an abundance of charming, solitary, pink to deep red, tea-like flowers that attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies. Its compact size and dense growth habit make it ideal for low hedges, rock gardens, and container plantings. Leptospermum scoparium 'Nana' is well-suited to a range of soil types, provided they are well-draining, and it thrives in full sun. Known for its hardiness and adaptability, this cultivar is a popular choice for ornamental landscaping and is valued not only for its aesthetic appeal but also for its potential medicinal properties associated with the essential oils found in its leaves and flowers. Zones 9-11
Germination
Germinating Leptospermum scoparium 'Nana' seeds can be accomplished with these steps. Begin by preparing a well-draining seed-starting mix or use a mix of equal parts sand and peat moss. Plant the seeds on the soil surface, gently pressing them down without burying them, as they require light for germination. Water the soil thoroughly to ensure good seed-to-soil contact. To maintain humidity and moisture, cover the planting container with a clear plastic lid or plastic wrap. Place the container in a warm location with indirect sunlight or under grow lights. 'Nana' Manuka seeds can be slow to germinate, often taking several weeks to a few months. During this time, maintain consistently moist but not waterlogged soil. Once the seedlings have grown large enough and developed a few sets of true leaves, they can be transplanted into larger pots or your garden, ensuring they have well-drained soil and receive full sun. Leptospermum scoparium 'Nana' is a wonderful choice for compact gardens or container planting, and with patience during germination, you can enjoy its aromatic foliage and attractive blossoms in your landscape.
Helleborus niger | Christmas Rose | 5 Seeds
Regular price $7.79 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 124): Computation results in '-Infinity'%Helleborus niger, commonly known as Christmas Rose or Black Hellebore, is a charming perennial plant native to Europe. This elegant species typically grows to a height of 8 to 12 inches. It features dark green, leathery leaves that serve as a backdrop for its solitary, bowl-shaped flowers. The blossoms, which are white or pale pink, often emerge during the winter months, adding a touch of delicate beauty to the cold season. Despite its name, the plant is not a true rose and belongs to the buttercup family. Helleborus niger thrives in well-draining soil and prefers partial to full shade conditions. Its ability to bloom in cooler weather makes it a favored choice for adding interest to winter gardens and shaded areas. This hellebore's graceful appearance and early flowering time contribute to its popularity among gardeners looking to brighten up the winter landscape. Zones 5-9
Germination
To germinate Helleborus niger seeds, start by cleaning the seeds to remove any debris or pulp. Because hellebore seeds have a natural germination inhibitor, it's recommended to perform a process called "double dormancy breaking." First, place the cleaned seeds in a plastic bag with a moist substrate and refrigerate them for about 8-10 weeks at temperatures between 32-41°F (0-5°C). After this cold stratification period, sow the seeds on a well-draining seed-starting mix and cover them with a thin layer of soil. Maintain a cool environment with temperatures around 50-60°F (10-15°C) for germination. Keep the soil consistently moist. Germination can be slow and variable, often taking several weeks to a few months. Once the seedlings have developed a few sets of leaves and are sturdy enough, they can be transplanted into individual pots or outdoor locations. Helleborus niger prefers well-draining soil and partial to full shade. The specialized germination process will reward you with the delicate and beautiful presence of Christmas Rose in your garden, especially during the colder months.

Its captivating flowers and adaptability make it a favored choice for enhancing landscapes with year-round vibrancy and floral allure. Zones 8-11
Germination
Cestrum elegans follows a specific process for successful seed germination. To enhance germination, it's beneficial to scarify the seeds by gently rubbing them with sandpaper or nicking the seed coat with a knife. After scarification, soak the seeds in room temperature water for 24 hours to soften the seed coat and promote germination. Prepare a well-draining seed starting mix and sow the seeds at a depth of about 1/4 inch in individual containers or seed trays. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, as excessive moisture can lead to rot. Place the containers in a warm location with temperatures around 70-80°F (21-27°C) to encourage germination, which typically occurs within 2-4 weeks. Once the seedlings emerge, provide them with bright, indirect light and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions before transplanting them into their permanent location. With careful attention to these steps, successful germination and healthy growth of Cestrum elegans seeds can be achieved.

Lobelia siphilitica | Blue Cardinal Flower | 200 Seeds
Regular price $9.79 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 124): Computation results in '-Infinity'%Lobelia siphilitica, commonly known as the Great Blue Lobelia or Blue Cardinal Flower, is a captivating native perennial wildflower found in eastern North America. This striking plant typically grows to heights of 2 to 3 feet (60 to 90 cm) and is renowned for its dramatic display of vibrant blue, tubular flowers that cluster on tall spikes. These blossoms bear a striking resemblance to those of the cardinal flower but are a distinctive shade of blue. The lance-shaped leaves are deep green and form a lush backdrop to the brilliant blooms. Lobelia siphilitica thrives in moist to wet soils, often found near streams, ponds, and other damp areas, making it an excellent choice for rain gardens and waterside plantings. This lobelia species attracts pollinators like bees and hummingbirds with its nectar-rich flowers and adds a burst of color and wildlife interest to native plant gardens, particularly in late summer when it comes into full bloom. Zones 5-9
Germination
Germinating Lobelia siphilitica seeds can be a rewarding but somewhat challenging process. To break their dormancy, stratify the seeds by placing them in a moist paper towel or peat moss and then seal them in a plastic bag or container. Refrigerate for 6-8 weeks to mimic winter conditions. After stratification, sow the seeds in a well-draining seed-starting mix in a seed tray or small pots. Lightly press the seeds onto the surface of the soil, as they require light for germination, and do not bury them. Provide indirect sunlight or use grow lights to maintain a temperature around 70-75°F (21-24°C). Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, using a fine mist to water the seeds to avoid dislodging them. Germination can be slow, taking several weeks to a few months. Once the seedlings have developed several true leaves, transplant them into individual pots or into the garden bed once the risk of frost has passed. Handle the delicate seedlings with care, and provide well-drained soil and partial shade in the garden for optimal growth. Be patient, as Lobelia siphilitica seeds may require some time and attention to achieve successful germination.
