歐洲防風草 'Hollow Crown'

Soaked the seeds overnight as suggested and saw sprouts in about 10 days. The hollow crown at the top is exactly as described—definitely a conversation starter in the garden.

The hollow crown at the top makes them easy to identify once they sprout. Soaked the seeds overnight before planting and had great germination this season.

Planted these in early spring after soaking them as the description suggests, and nearly every seed came up. The little dip at the crown is genuinely visible as the seedlings mature, which is a cool nod to the variety's history.
