Aloysia virgata (Sweet Almond Bush) - 200 Seeds

200 Homegrown Seeds (0.2 grams).  The smell on these flowers is amazing.  Strong and sweet, often compared to almonds.  Also known as Almond Verbena or Sweet Almond Verbena.  Originally from Argentina but naturalized in parts of Texas, Florida, and the Gulf Coast.

This batch was collected in 2-3-26 and is untested. Germination rate has typically been about 5%.  Try 75F and only cover seeds very lightly as they need light to start growing.  Seeds will germinate in about 5-60 days.  Don't let small seedlings dry out.  They get more tolerant to drying out as they get bigger and are fine on their own once established in the ground.
