Anomatheca laxa

Sowing method: Year-round in a seed tray, first give 2-4 weeks of warmth (18-22°C), then a cold period in e.g. the refrigerator (+4°C) for 4-6 weeks, then gradually warm up to room temperature, after which germination will follow. Sowing directly into the ground is also possible; just let winter pass over it, and germination will occur in spring.
