Lilium bolanderi germination

After reading Ken's description of his Oregon growing conditions for
American lilies, I checked Rainbow Francom's website, as I have
ordered seeds of garden-grown bolanderi from her. She lives in
Middletown, California, which is near Mt. St. Helena, near the Napa
Valley, north of San Francisco.
I hope that garden-grown difficult plants are ones that have self-
selected to be more tolerant of garden conditions, and will therefore
be a bit easier to grow.
I had been so excited by her photos that I neglected to read her
description of how to germinate and grow the seeds she is
selling. http://www.lilyseed.com/growing_species.html
