Lythrum Salicaria seed

Lythrum Salicaria also known as Purple Loosestrife is a tall growing wildflower that has showy flowers ranging in colors from pink, magenta, and purple that are in dense spikes. They can grow up to 18 inches long and are held atop leaves that are lance shaped. They have a blooming season that ranges from early July to September, will grow between 2 – 4 feet tall, and can be grown in either full sun or part shade. It is important to note that these plants shouldn’t need staking however, you should deadhead the spent blooms regularly to maintain a tidy appearance. They will attract pollinators to your garden such as hummingbirds, Butterflies and Bees while being resistant to Deer and Rabbits. They are native to Europe and Asia and do best in beds and borders in the garden, in containers, bog gardens, and along streams and ponds.

I urge anyone buying seed to do their homework on germination, I have not raised and cannot raise many of these plants as I am sub-tropics here in St Augustine, Florida. All seed are NOT alike!  There are so many different factors in germination and not doing a search is throwing your money away. I want everyone to be successful when growing your flowers from seed it is the most rewarding experience in Gardening and you can do it, if you give the seed what it needs to grow. I always check 3 sites of info to choose how I will go about it. It is not hard to do, if you do it right!

SEED GERMINATION TIP!!!!!!!

ONLY GERMINATE A SMALL PORTION AT A TIME.

DON'T PUT ALL YOUR MONKEYS IN A BARREL.

Good Luck and Happy Planting!!!!
