Description
Reviews

The Great Yellow Gentian occurs in the alps as well as in other mountain ranges in Central and South Europe.

Its root can get up to 60 years old and as thick as an arm.

Due to its bitters, the dried root is used as an appetizer in booze but it's also said to help against fever.

Cold germination: sow outdoors at the beginning of spring or in autumn. Alternatively, you can use artificial stratification, as follows. Mix the seeds with moist sand in a plastic bag. Keep the bag warm and moist (approx. +20°C) for the first 2-4 weeks and then place it in the refrigerator and keep it at a temperature of +5°C for 5-6 weeks. Then remove the plastic bag from the refrigerator and remove the seed and sand mix from the bag. Keep the sand mix at room temperature and check the seeds regularly to see when they germinate. Prick the seedlings into pots and plant them out after the last frosts in mid-May.
