Alex,

Are those seeds the ones I sent you? If so they experienced a natural period of stratification of sorts. They were harvested very late from a outdoor bog. So even though they did not sit on the ground to stratify, the seeds were exposed to wet very cool conditions for a couple weeks in the pods.

In fact just for fun I took a full flowerscape from the same bog and laid it in my rotundifolia pot. It has now sprouted into hundreds and hundreds of little seedlings. I will pop a picture later if I get a chance.
