Convallaria majalis
PINK LILY Of The VALLEY
SKU: 383-3
Description
A new pink-flowered of this classic woodland garden perennial! Extremely fragrant! A favorite for cut flowers in the home, and in bridal bouquets. Foliage is thick, lush and forms carpets of green. These plants look dainty, but are extremely tough, easy to grow, and are tolerant of drought, and even acidic soil under evergreen! Plants can take a considerable amount of sun, though traditionally grown in d areas. An elegant filler for tough spots. The seeds are in very limited supply!
Type: Hardy perennial
Height: 10"
Location: or part sun
Hardiness zones: 2-9
Note: Ornamental use only. These seeds and/or plants are very poisonous.
Seeds per pack: 3
Germination: Start these seeds indoors right away for best germination rates. Your planting container should have holes in the bottom for excess water to drain. Sow the seeds just under the surface of a seed-start mix, 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 can be erratic, generally 30-90 days after the warming period, though some can take longer.
