Erythronium grandiflorum
TROUT LILY, YELLOW FAWN LILY
SKU: 247-5
A loved early spring flower, the Trout Lily's sunny yellow flowers are held well above the thick and highly patterned purple, brown and white thick mottled foliage! Trout lily is a long-lived perennial, that over time, will self seeds and form drifts in shady or wooded areas.
Type: Hardy perennial
Hardiness zones: 3-8, possibly zone 2
Height: 30 cm
Location: Shade or part shade
Germination: Sow the seeds just under the surface and water in. Leave them at room temperature for 4 weeks. This helps break the phytohormones which inhibit germination. They will not grow yet. Then a cooling period is required. Cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 80 days. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold-moist stratification period they are then brought back to a cool room (15-18C, 59-68F) for them to germinate. Germination is generally 30-60 days after the warming period, though some can take longer.
