Advice on germinating liatris ligulistylus
 

Greetings! I have been trying for years to get seeds of liatris
ligulistylus to germinate. The more common type of liatris self-seeds
readily enough, but the ligulistylus won't germinate indoors or out. If
anyone has any suggestions, they would be appreciated. I haven't tried
stratification in the refrigerator since I wasn't getting germination
outdoors either where I figured it was occurring.

Thanks!

I bought L. ligulistylus by accident, way too big for my garden.
Sprouted them anyways. Stratification is necessary, mine germinated
in the fridge -- didn't even wait for me to take them out. :)
