50 seeds
Scouler's Saint John's Wort is a yellow native flower found throughout the Rocky Mountains and west. The plant's thick, green, hairless stems grow close together and branch freely, forming large clumps with dozens of flower heads. The flowers have five yellow half inch long petals. The petals’ edges are lined with dark dots. Dense clusters of yellow styles and yellow stamens lie at the center. The plant inhabits moist locations in mountainous areas, from the foothills to the Alpine zone.
Sow seeds directly in prepared growing area 1/8th of an inch deep. Stored seeds are started indoors in small pots around 10 weeks before spring is to begin. Place the pots on a windowsill that is warm but does not get too hot. Once the plants have grown a few inches tall, they can be hardened off. Transplant the seedlings three weeks in advance of the expected last frost or at the beginning of autumn.
