Q: I planted these a couple of years ago and need to transplant them to another area. Is mid-June too late to do so? Do I need to wait until spring?

Q: I was interested in ordering some A. parlinii seeds but wanted to know how many come in a packet, and I was planning to plant some seeds outside immediately, but also wanted to start some seeds inside and plant the seedlings next spring. Do I need to stratify?

Q: When will you have Antennaria [pussytoes] back in stock. We need one to two flats. Note: when you email me back you will get a reply to call me to be added to my address book. I will get you r message. My spam filter has gone crazy. We would want the plants shipped to Reno, Nevada.

Q: Is there any source information for the root type and depth of the plants you feature? For example, does Antennaria plantaginifolia have fibrous roots that are dense and typically 6" long? Also, the moisture and soil preferences? I am trying to plan smarter on my purchases and my plant locations. If you do not provide that information do you know a source?

Q: I purchased 6 of these last year. I think that only one group made it through the winter but that one seems to have multiplied in part shade. Will this plant tolerate full sun? I need ground cover that is low to the ground to fill in around other plants. Thanks

Accepted Answer

Spring and fall are the best times to transplant. You could still do it now, though. You may need to trim off some foliage if you damage the roots too much.

Accepted Answer

There will be at least 200 seeds in the packet. I think a 2 to 4 week stratification period will increase germination. The seeds are tiny and don't need to be buried in the soil; just sow them on the surface.

Accepted Answer

We grow pussytoes and nearly all of our other species from seed. Availability depends on germination & how rapidly the seedlings mature, among other things. The easiest way to be notified about availability is to add your details to the pussytoes waiting list.

Accepted Answer

We try to provide moisture and sun preferences, but we don't have root-type listed for every species.
