Drosera seeds


Question
I ordered some Drosera intermedia seeds, and I was going to store them in refrigeration until fall, when I would plant them as a "carpet" in a bog garden, which was an idea I got from you.  What month should I sow them for germination in spring?
I live in Ellensburg, WA

Answer
Hi John,

Sprinkle your seeds on your bog garden in late September.  This corresponds with about the same time plants drop their seeds, but you could easily do this anytime from late August to November.  The seeds just need to go through winter in cold, damp conditions.  They will germinate late next spring.

Good Growing!
