I WS delphiniums if the seeds are cheap, but for expensive seeds---I baby them along in the house. Pagan Purple seeds on a moist paper towel and in sunny window have sprouted the last few days. Several out of the 8 or 9 seeds have sprouted.

PS: I have started a cubit on all things delphinium.

TERMS:

Stratification: Chilling seeds to promote germination. Damp paper towel in a baggy & put in fridge
Scarification: Scratching or notching seed coat. Soaking with Hydrogen Peroxide & Water works too
Damping Off: a fungal disease that causes seedlings to die soon after germination

QUICK TIPS:

Chamomile Tea prevents damp off. Steep 20 min, cool to room temp & water your trays
