Seed Handling Guide:

It is best to sow seeds directly into the ground in autumn or in early spring after stratification. To stratify the seeds, mix them with moist sand, place them in a ziplock bag or pot, and refrigerate for approximately 4-6 months, monitoring the moisture content and checking for mold. After this process, the seeds are planted 1.5-2 cm deep, spacing them evenly. They require moderate humidity.
