Germination

To successfully germinate Calochortus nuttallii seeds (pink form) seeds, start by mimicking their natural dormancy-breaking process. Provide a period of cold stratification by refrigerating them for a few weeks. Begin by preparing a well-draining planting medium composed of a mix of sand and peat or a commercial seed-starting mix. Sow the seeds on the surface of the soil mixture, pressing them lightly into the substrate. Moisten the soil gently without oversaturating it, and cover the container with a clear plastic lid or a plastic wrap to create a greenhouse-like environment. Place the container in a warm, brightly lit area, ensuring it receives indirect sunlight. Germination typically occurs within several weeks to a few months, and as the seedlings emerge, gradually expose them to more direct light and adjust watering to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Once the seedlings have developed a few sets of leaves, they can be transplanted carefully into individual pots or an outdoor garden space with well-draining soil and adequate sunlight.
