Seed-Sowing & Propagation: An Introduction to Growing Your Own Native Plants

Nursery-owner Ian Caton introduces us to the fun and rewarding process of propagating native plants from seed. He discusses the techniques and challenges of collecting, storing, sowing and growing your own native plants: how to time collection and sowing properly in order to overcome seed dormancy; how to properly store seeds so they don’t lose viability; what tools are needed; and what to do after you have successfully germinated your seeds.
