Edelweiss & Gentian - Seed kit

now. As rock garden plants, however, both will thrive wonderfully in your garden and can delight the heart of any lover of alpine flora.

This seed kit contains the following 2 alpine flowers:

• Edelweiss (Leontopodium alpinum)
  The white, unmistakable pseudoflowers of the Alpine edelweiss are certainly among the most symbolic plant images in Europe. As a wild plant it has become extremely rare due to its popularity and the wild picking by alpine tourism. It was one of the first plants ever to be placed under nature conservation.
• Stemless Gentian (Gentiana acaulis)
  The typical bright blue flowers appear very early in the year. Perennial and evergreen plant for sun and semi-shade.

The seeds of each variety are packaged in a separate sachet.
Please note: The seeds of both plants are so-called cold germinators and should either be sown outdoors in autumn or require cold stratification before sowing in spring (from February). The sowing of these seeds is recommended for passionate gardeners and requires sure instinct and a good deal of patience.
