Last fall I collected a fair amount of seeds from wildflowers that flourish in my yard (it is an old hay field). I plan to spot-seed the wildflowers. I cover up an area of the “lawn” to kill off most of the whatever is growing there to give the new plants a chance. I intended to plant my seeds in milk jugs in January for natural stratification but neglected to get that done. The wet paper towel fridge cold stratification seems very risky. What would I do if the seeds sprouted now while the ground was still frozen? Should I save my seeds for another year? I have considered scattering the seeds now, but the mat of roots from the old hay field will give them a real fight. Any ideas? Joanne Bates PS I live in Hermantown just outside of Duluth.
