Details

Grow a historic and powerful herb with our Valerian seeds. This hardy perennial has been a cornerstone of traditional herbal medicine for centuries, where its potent root is highly prized. The plant itself is beautiful and stately, with attractive, fern-like foliage and large, fragrant, vanilla-scented clusters of delicate pinkish-white flowers that bloom in mid-summer. A favorite of pollinators, Valerian is also famously attractive to cats, who love it as much as catnip.

Germination Group

Group 1 - Cold Stratified

These seeds require cold stratification to break dormancy and germinate successfully. Winter sowing in jugs provides the perfect natural cold treatment these varieties need. Sow outdoors in winter and let nature do the work—the freeze-thaw cycles will prepare them for spring germination.
