How do I successfully grow Impatiens from seed?
Comments (8)Good news everyone! I started my impatiens March 1st and today is March 5th and they all are sprouting! Yay! I can barely believe how quick they germinated the packet says for one flat in 14-21 days the other flat ( different variety impatiens) says 21-28 days till germination. All I can say is thats a blessing for sure! I been keeping the light on the seeds 24/7 and it has been a steady temp between 73-78 (soil temp) since I turned the one out of two light fixtures off the second day. I will most likely remove the dome once the seeds have lost there shell. Then once they all are completely germinated I will turn the light off at night, it generally doesn't fall below 65f when the light is off. Does this sound like a good idea???...See MoreHow do I grow Amaryllis from seeds?
Comments (1)Hi. If you look through the Frequently Asked Questions at the top if the message list, there are details on floating the seeds in water and planting them directly in soil. You can also search this forum for the word "float" and see several discussions about germinating seeds. With reasonable care, you could expect blooms in 3-4 years. Good luck!

Comments (5)Thank you for posting this question. I too found bulbils on some new lilies this year and started them earlier in the summer when they started to drop. I searched on this forum and found a good post on how to start them but the NALS site has the same information. I also tried hybridizing this year and was about to post a question about how to germinate seeds. My seeds are still ripening in the pods but it won't be long now before they are ready to harvest. Kayman, thank you for that link it also has the seed germination process. I also found that it has the online register database which is something I had been looking to find. Is there someplace that keeps a large database with pictures? All but 2 of mine are NOID's from box store mixes that I'd like to find names for if possible. Not that I don't appreciate them w/o names but it would just be easier to have a name than to assign a strange garden name like "the lily by the fence"....See MoreHow do I grow Erica caffra from seed?
Comments (1)Kirstenboch Arboretum in Capetown produces a product calles 'Smoke Papers'. I don't know if you can find them locally; but they are available from Nindethana Seed Service, Albany, Western Australia. Smoke treatment is essential in the propegation of nearly all South African Ericas. Here is a link that might be useful: Nindethana Seed Service...See Moremariava7
