I'm looking into growing some Dawn redwoods from seed and, like so much else, seem to be finding conflicting guidance on vendor and when to plant.
Vendors
Many have spoken highly of Sheffield's but their current stock is identified as 62% purity [what's the other 38%??] and 53% germination.
Others have said RareExoticSeeds is not bad and their prices are exceptional. But they don't provide any info on germination rate.
So what's your experience w/ the 2?
And then looking at RareExoticSeeds, I could add Coast Redwoods, Sequoia gigantea, Zelkova serrata, Ulmus parvifolia and Cryptomeria seeds for little $.
Planting Time
Seems that with 2 week stratification I could plant the dawn redwood 'now'. Have others found spring planting successful?
What guidance on planting the other varieities from RareExotic [if I went that route]?
