Sowing Alpine Seeds
Sowing alpine seeds is a real challenge and they can be really tricky. Let’s just say it’s not like shelling peas. This week I have sown – Penstemon Clevelandii, Penstemon Compactus, Lewisia Tweedyi. With the Penstemon seeds I have left these uncovered as they need light to germinate. I did achieve a fair germination of these last year, however, my time constraints took me away, and unless there is a strong focus on certain things such as alpine seeds you have to accept some losses. However, experience pushes you forward into another year to try again.
The seeds I have sown this week I have sown into a modular trays using a John Innes seed compost. I am propagating these at an overnight temperature running between 10-15 c. I have tried several techniques sowing alpine seeds, of course varying seeds of plant species have individual requirements.
