seeds

[Log Cabin Pat]

Hi Guys
I just planted some seeds that I picked up from some ones yard. By the time I found them again in my purse I had forgotten what they were. I went a head and planted them. Now I remember that they are tree peony seeds. Has any one planted these before? I have them just under the soil, on heat. I did stratify them in the fridge. Have I done it correctly? Do they need heat? Do they need light or dark? Help --- I know that if you don't do seeds the right wat they will not germinate.

Pat,

I have to admit that I do not know much about peony, but I found a site that might help:

Good Luck!

A web site I found at www.agr.ca/pfra/shbpub/shbpub22.htm has great info concerning the need for stratification etc for many shrubs and trees. Not sure if it helps here, but good info for the future.
