Yellow Pimpernel Seeds
Taenidia integerrima
- HOW TO GROW
- FAST FACTS
HOW TO GROW
Sowing: Direct sow in late fall, planting just below the surface of the soil. For spring planting, mix the yellow pimpernel seeds with moist sand and store in the refrigerator for 60 days before planting. Keep the soil lightly moist until germination.
Growing: Water seedlings occasionally until they become established; mature plants grow well in drought and poor soil, as well as rocky soil or gravel. This plant will self-seed occasionally in good growing conditions.
Harvesting: These blossoms do not perform well as cut flowers, and are best enjoyed outdoors.
Seed Saving: After the yellow pimpernel flowers fade, the small, ribbed seeds will begin to form. Strip the seeds from the plant as soon as they easily come loose from the stems. Store the Taenidia Integerrima seed in a cool, dry place.
