Collecting Native Seeds for Propagation
Online/Virtual
Public Welcome Recording Available Registration Required Free Event Program/Speaker Presentation
Lydia Pan has been propagating native plants from seed for nearly a decade. In this class, she will discuss the benefits of collecting your own seeds, how to tell when seeds are ripe, how to process seeds (if necessary), which seeds can be stored and which seeds must be sown fresh. Examples of different types of seeds will be discussed, focusing on those that Lydia has successfully propagated and which are desirable for planting in home gardens. Lydia will be joined by ecological horticulturist Anna Fialkoff to answer your questions about native seeds. Anyone who wants to learn about native seed collecting in our ecoregion is welcome!
