I am offering Canna Lily Seeds
Yellow flower with Green leaves
Grows to 3 to 4 foot tall
**these can be difficult to get to sprout, and will most likely need scarification of each seed to get them to germinate, as the shells are very hard
Just soaking them may not be enough
I have mastered the trick of getting the canna seeds to germinate
1. Scarification- by sanding down a small spot the outer shell at the top to allow water to penetrate down to the inner seed
2. Expose the seeds to boiling hot water and allow to cool
3. Stratification- soak seeds in water for a number of days, changing the water daily till the seeds start to spout out of the shell,
With this method the seeds started to sprout in 2 days
Asking $5 for 20 seeds
Larger seed lots are available
