California Buckwheat seeds (Eriogonum and 25 similar items

California Buckwheat Eriogonum fasciculatum almost doesn?t need soil: give it a pile of rocks in full sun and it will probably be right at home. Once its root system is established, it can live for up to 50 years, requiring only the seasonal rainfall. It frequently flowers for months on end in the heat of summer after other flowers have called it quits. It supports a diversity of wildlife-bees, wasps and other insects are attracted to it and will put on a show-beautiful to watch! What?s not to love?! VERY Drought tolerant. Excellent sand dune binder and cliff hanger. This variety has white flowers that turn pinkish as it ages. Its about 4 ft X 4 ft. tall when mature. This is not the ground cover size. You'll be receiving fresh organic seeds grown in CA. 150 + seeds-The seeds are quite small and will be mixed with the seed "cotton" that surrounds them-plant all together. see 2 week old seedlings and date tag. (to plant-sprinkle the seeds on top of soil in starter tray, water lightly from bottom so as not to disturb seeds. Quick germination within 2 weeks. Transplant when large enough to handle and then set out a few weeks later.) We love our mother plant. It is growing next to our community garden about 10 blocks from the ocean in San francisco. It is about 10 years old and it's covered with blooms currently. It attracts so many varieties of bees and wasps and other insects. It's a sight to see. Birds and other animals love its cover as well. Give it lots of room and it will thrive. I'm starting some new plants now (8-23) and will transplant those into individual containers shortly and plan on planting out some new plants soon. PS as you have noticed the seeds are very very tiny. Almost microscopic. Just sprinkle the chaft and dust and what is in the seed packet on top of the soil and you will notice that they germinate within 5 to 7 days.
