    Lilium auratum needs a warm/cold/warm cycle of 8 wks each.

    Salvia nipponica, try 4 wks warm, if no germination 4-6 wks cold.

    Usually if I cannot find specific information, I just sow outdoors in winter and wait for germination in Spring.

    For information I usually check these places:
    http://www.onrockgarden.com/ - on the top right there is a link to 'germination guide'.

    Also Jelitto has germination guide for all the seed they carry at their website.

    Hi Belinda,
    I have done like that after having an advice on the GWeb. I didn't know the first link. Many thanks for that.
    All the best. JPierre
