Wildflower seeds pre-treated?

| I read that wildflower seeds must go through a period of cold in order to germinate. We are unable to plant until early May. Do any seed companies sell wildflower seed that they have already pre-treated by subjecting the seeds to cold? |

| Some do, or a bedding-plant company might have some treated seed that they didn't use. Your best bet is to talk to your local Native Plant Society chapter-- someone there might have seed, or can tell you which company in your area would be likeliest to help. You'll need seed specifically for your region (Utah?). |

| Most of your reputable Native Plant Nurseries, are already selling seed that has been cold stratified. Prairie Nursery, Prairie Moon, Ion Exchange. |
