Propagation Notes

Transplanting - Seedlings were transplanted from Suzy Rafferty's yard. They tend to look sad and weak for a bit.  After a generous soaking and a few days of shade they are good to go.

From Seed - Very easy. Planting seed in pots during the fall resulted in high germination rate.

Seed Provenance - Suzanne Rafferty, Fairview Park Ohio (original plant Ohio Prairie Nursery)
