- Unit price
- / per
This perennial shrub is native to Southern Europe. The stems grow flat, with true leaves growing from near the flowering locations. Once established, this shrub will slowly spread in the area it's planted. Does well in full shade conditions.
Type: Perennial
Hardiness zone: 8-10
Height: 32", 80cm
Location: Shade
Seeds per packet: 5
Scratch each seed between 2 layers of sand-paper, or on a rough stone or brick. Sow just under the surface of the soil and water in. Then cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 3-4 months. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold stratification period they are then brought back to room temperature 20-22°C (68-72°F) for them to germinate. Germination is erratic, and some can take up to 1 year. Do not discard the planting tray, as patience is needed, and they are well worth the wait.
Ornamental use only. May be poisonous.
