This can be done naturally by sowing the seeds outdoors in the fall, allowing the cold season to prepare the seeds for spring. You can also stratify the seeds in a refrigerator for 6 weeks to prepare the seeds for direct sowing in the spring. Under proper conditions, the seeds will then germinate in 1-2 weeks. These seeds should be sown in an area of full sun. Employ a light application of low-nitrogen fertilizer in the early spring. Divide plants every 2-3 years. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeason: Perennial\u003cbr\u003eUSDA Zones: 5 - 9\u003cbr\u003eHeight: 6 - 12 inches\u003cbr\u003eBloom Season: Spring\u003cbr\u003eBloom Color: Purple\u003cbr\u003eEnvironment: Full sun\u003cbr\u003eSoil Type: Moist, well-drained, pH 6.1 - 7.5\u003cbr\u003eDeer Resistant: Yes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePlanting Directions\u003cbr\u003e**Cold stratification required**\u003cbr\u003eTemperature: 70 - 75F\u003cbr\u003eAverage Germ Time: 28 - 35 days\u003cbr\u003eLight Required: Yes\u003cbr\u003eDepth: Press into soil, do not cover\u003cbr\u003eSowing Rate: 3 - 4 seeds per plant\u003cbr\u003eMoisture: Keep moist until germination\u003cbr\u003ePlant Spacing: 6 - 12 inches\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e*** Shipping notice:\u003cbr\u003eAll orders under $35 except paw paws are mailed in a regular envelope with a regular stamp or non-machinable stamp.
