A cold moist stratification period of 60-90 days is recommended; you can mix seeds with moist sand or peat moss and refrigerate them in a sealed bag. After stratification, sow seeds indoors in pots or directly outdoors in a prepared seedbed. Press seeds lightly into the soil surface and keep moist until germination. Once seedlings have several sets of true leaves, transplant them to their permanent location, spacing them 3-5 feet apart. Choose a site with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a deep root system; thereafter, the plants are quite drought-tolerant. Mulch around the base to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Prune as needed to maintain shape and remove dead or damaged wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Rosa woodsii seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67835972452662,"sku":"FOLIA2-1414","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7855122695_3bog.jpg?v=1793096690","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/25-wild-rose-seeds-rosa-woodsii-native-pink-flowering-shrub","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
