Delphinium occidental lives in meadows and mountain sides in northern California and requires a cold winter to germinate. The flower stalks of this species make great dried flowers, so you might want to dry some of yours for permanent arrangements.

Some American Native Wildflower seeds need to go through a cold winter to germinate. This plant is one of them. They do this so the seed won’t sprout in fall, only to have the seedling not make it through a cold winter. I have stratified these seeds to simulate a cold winter(stratification) This raises the germination rate considerably.

Due to varying conditions regarding germination (moisture, temperature, soil contamination, not to mention buyer experience and knowledge and experience of germination), we cannot guarantee germination rate of seeds. All of our seeds are fresh, viable, and tested. If you have questions or concerns, you can always contact us through messages.
