Propagating from Seeds

Almost all native plants can be propagated from seed, although it can be time-consuming and, with some species, undependable. However, using seed is a valuable propagation method because it reduces the likelihood of injuring the parent plant, minimizes your impact on natural settings, and makes it possible to grow a large number of seedlings. Plants grown from seed also tend to establish more readily than when transplanted at a larger size.
