I'm trying to find out if Stevia seed can be stored, well dried and
sealed, in the freezer. I know it's fairly short-lived and spotty on
germination. We grew it several years ago; a few plants provide more
dried and ground leaves than the sweetest tooth could need, but now to
try again with online purchased seed.
Did I mention that I'm ....erm... economical?
i'm out of the loop with this plant. i don't
even know if it is an annual or perennial or
what...
that said:
no luck with rooting cuttings and keeping
them indoors for the winter?
(and did you move to the UK? or why the crosspost?)
if i were a grower i'd be happy to send you a
few rooted plants in the mail once it warmed up a
bit (take the dirt off the roots, wrap in moist paper
towel, put in plastic bag then envelope, many small
plants will survive the trip if they're not frozen).
