| Has anyone ever had any luck growing Arum Italicum from seed? Finally last year I was able to dry the orange pods, and harvest the seeds inside. I was wondering if I needed to soak or stratify the seeds before sowing, and how long they will take to germ? |
Follow-Up Postings:

| Sown fresh and exposed to moist cold of about 45 days, they will often germinate in additional two-3 weeks. Stored dried seed may (or may not) take much longer to germinate, up to several months after stratifying. |

| Thanks for the help, I will start to stratify the seeds asap. |

| Hi there my father told me once that he just sowed freshly collected seed of Arumitalicum in the garden where it grew nicely. It was north facing on a heavy clay soil. He thought it important that the seed is fresh. Good luck, cheers, Lin |
