That text would be great. Thanks. Steve -----Original Message----- From: Eugene Zielinski [mailto:eez55@earthlink.net] Sent: Mon 9/6/2004 9:52 PM To: pbs@lists.ibiblio.org. Cc: Subject: RE: [pbs] Germinating Cardiocrinum giganteum I checked Norm Deno's research, and he's pretty much convinced that the seed loses viability fairly rapidly in dry storage. In other words, old seed will be "difficult to germinate." So, sow the seed as soon as you can, or keep it moist if you can't sow it right away. As far as temperature is concerned, I can't find a definite pattern in the research. (He tried temperatures of 40 F and 70 F. I can send you an e mail with the entire text - it isn't that long - if you'd like.) I'd recommend outdoor sowing in pots, but I don't speak from experience here.
