Hi
I just want to know if you could help me Nomocharis seeds.
I have tried a couple of years so that these seeds but nothing comes out of it.
I do as you type, wound in a light moisturizing earth - but no.
Should I put the pots outside now or as Gote writes elsewhere "they grow at 20 C." equal inside.
Can you help - I would so like to have time in Nomocharis.

Nomocharis seeds do not need cold treatment to grow. If the seeds are good, they will grow in room temperature within a month.

Hi,
I'd sow them as soon as possible at 60 degrees F (61F==16C). I'd do just what Ian Young shows on his bulb log - on the top of well drained material. I suppose the catch there, is "if you want them to germinate at once", which depends on having somewhere warm and light to keep them.
When I got them from the seedex, in small numbers I'd put them in zip seal bags with damp kitchen towels. Germination could be sporadic, and go on into the middle of Summer. In ziplock bags you can keep track of them, which matters when you only have 2 or 3.
