Time of germination varies considerably, according to conditions.If the soil is too dry the seeds will not start; if too wet they will 
rot, especially if the temperature is warm. Some seeds, especially of shrubs and trees, will He in the ground for one, two or more 
years before germinating. Adlumia, Dictamnus, Primula vulgaris, English Violets and many other perennials will often lie dormant 
years or even longer. I have known fresh seeds of shrubs to He dormant for four years, then come up thick in the row. Most of the 
eeedc I offer however, will germinate promptly, and bloom the same season in which they are sown.
