Gaia markets this heirloom dye plant as Wild Indigo. The botanical name distinguishes it from \u003cem\u003eBaptisia\u003c\/em\u003e species, which are also commonly called wild indigo in North America. Kew accepts \u003cem\u003eIndigofera tinctoria\u003c\/em\u003e in the Fabaceae family and places its native range in tropical and southern Africa and from South Asia to Indo-China; it is therefore not native to Québec or Canada. Grown here as an annual, it develops into an ornamental 3- to 5-foot subshrub. Each packet contains 25 ecologically grown, open-pollinated heirloom seeds intended for ornamental and dye-garden use. For practical seed starting, growing from seed succeeds best when the verified product depth, moisture and temperature guidance is followed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCold stratify seeds for 30 days, then sow indoors 6 to 8 weeks before the last frost, approximately 1\/8 inch deep. Maintain the growing medium at 15 to 21°C, preferably near 21°C. Germination may require 14 to 60 days, so keep the medium evenly moist without saturation and allow slow seedlings adequate time. Transplant after frost risk has passed into slightly acidic, fertile, well-drained soil in full sun. Allow 48 to 60 inches between plants and approximately 60 inches between rows. Gaia publishes no numbered maturity period for this product, so plan for the longest warm growing season your location can provide. Use the product details as a clear guide on how to start seeds while keeping the growing medium evenly moist, never saturated. For indoor seed starting, count back from local conditions and frost dates to decide when to start indoor seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis plant is offered for ornamental and natural-dye projects, not as food. For dye use, harvest well-developed leaves before flowering, then dry them promptly in a cool, dark, ventilated place or follow a specialized indigo extraction method. Wear gloves, protect work surfaces, and reserve equipment specifically for dyeing. Store thoroughly dried leaves in a labelled container away from food and cooking utensils. Flowers and foliage may attract pollinators and beneficial insects. In cold regions, start early enough to develop useful foliage before autumn, but move plants outdoors only after frost risk has passed and temperatures remain reliably warm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gaia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56932697866400,"sku":null,"price":4.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/3878\/5440\/files\/WildIndigo.webp?v=1776429904"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.pepiniere.ca\/en\/collections\/baptisia-wild-indigo-seeds.oembed","provider":"Pépinière.ca","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
