Palm Beach Medicinal Herbs - Scotch Thistle (Onopordon acanthium) - Packet of 30 Seeds

They all came up this year and are blooming!

I planted them and they sprouted.

Didn't grow

If your not having any luck with growing it start it like I have so it can break through the shell and then put in dirt please be careful with scotch thistle it’s very very invasive and will kill off competition plants for water within a 5 to 6 foot range of its roots will even effect growth of other plants around it and even effect soil it’s a very Hardy plant because of this it can and will grow anywhere I love it but definitely collect seed pods before they drop can be done by cutting off flower head after it blooms and it starts to wilt by doing this you can use the seeds as please and our pollinators still get to enjoy all the beautiful blooms and you also don’t have to worry about it taking over at least from the seeds if you do this the roots spreading are usually a welcomed issue give it plenty of room at least 5 to 6 feet away from all other plants and trees happy growing

30 seeds, only 3 sprouts (wet paper towel method). So far the 3 that did sprout seem to be doing ok, but 10% sprout rate warrants only 2 stars from me.

I wanted to give my friend something to remind her of her native Scotland

Seeds start well.

Muy dulce para mi gusto. Pero espero y me de resultado para mi salud
