50 seeds
Woodland Star is an early spring flowering plant in the saxifrage family. It is native to much of western North America from British Columbia to California to South Dakota and Nebraska, where it grows in several types of open habitat. It is a rhizomatous perennial herb growing erect or leaning with a naked flowering stem. The leaves are mainly located low on the stem, each divided into three lobed leaflets.
Sow seeds in mid-autumn in prepared garden bed by gently patting seeds on the surface and covering with a mixture peat and well-rotted compost. Seeds germinate in the spring after chilling or freezing over the winter. Alternatively, sow seeds in small individual pots and stratify in a garage or other cold place over winter. Keep soil moist but not wet. Seeds should sprout in the spring. Seeds require 3 months cold stratification for germination and can take 1-2 years to bloom.
