20 Seeds Snowy Serviceberry {Amelanchier ovalis}

To germinate Amelanchier ovalis (Serviceberry) seeds, start by stratifying the seeds in a moist, cold environment for 30-60 days. Place the seeds in a plastic bag or airtight container with a damp paper towel, and refrigerate at 35-40°F (2-4°C). After stratification, remove the seeds from the cold and place them in a warm, bright location (around 70-80°F or 21-27°C) with indirect light. Water the seeds gently but thoroughly, and keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. It may take 1-3 months for the seeds to germinate, during which time make sure to maintain a consistent temperature and humidity level.
