Saxifraga MIXED

Sowing and germination

• It is advisable to sow seeds before winter, since many species require stratification ranging from several weeks to several months.
• Not all saxifrages require a cold period for seed germination, but none are affected by it.
• Since the seeds are very small, they are almost not covered, only lightly sprinkled with sand.
• After transferring the crops to a warm room, the seeds germinate in 2-3 weeks.
• Seedlings dive after the development of true leaves.
• In June-July, they are planted in a permanent place, maintaining a distance of 10-30 cm, depending on the species, and for the winter they are covered with a 10 cm layer of leaves.
• In open ground they germinate in 4-6 weeks.
• Special notes: The seeds are very small.
