Hi, I am trying to grow some from seed. If I have any luck, will share. So far, no luck. Believe I got the seeds from NEWFS.

You might contact donhackenberry@acsworld.com(Appalachian Wildflower Nursery)(no website) to see if he has them. They were on the last plant list I received from him.

Can get seed for H. bullata if you can't find it. Plant Group was selling them last spring through their catalog. The seed needs to stay moist, and requires a warm, moist stratification, followed by cold, then germinates when returned to warmth (70 deg. F, 40 deg. F, 70 deg. F, 6 weeks for first two stages). Gets off to a slow start. Keep seedlings moist. Setting pots in tray with a bit of water in bottom works.

I can't ship it since it has ESA status, but if you come though Charlottesville, then you are welcome to take a division of mine.
