Re: Seed of Peltandra virginica

From: Mary Jane Hatfield <oneota at ames.net> on 1998.09.11 at 03:47:34(2584) Thank you Vic, What a surprise. I am pleased. The package arrived today. However, what do you mean by "the seeds germinate easily in water"? Do I take the sedout of the fruit and put them in water, a moist paper towel? Have you grown them before? After they germinate, put them in what sort of soil? I know that when I tried skunk cabbages from seed, they didn't do well at all in boggy wet soil but sure did well in a soiless mix. Strange. +More I assume, without looking it up, that it is a sunny bog plant rather than a shady bog plant. On checking further I see that it is rare in Iowa. Mary Jane Hatfield
