Family Scientific Name: Apiaceae
Family Common Name: Carrot family
Scientific Name: Perideridia oregana
Common Name: Oregon yampah
Species Code: PEOR6
Ecotype: seeds were collected from Lane Co, Oregon near Eugene.
Propagation Goal: plants
Propagation Method: seed
ProductType: Container (plug)
Time To Grow: 0
Pre-Planting Treatments: Seeds were sown directly into cone-tainers filled with Sunshine#1 (a soil-less peat-based media) amended with micro-nutrients (Micromax) and a slow-release fertilizer (Osmocote 14-14-14). Flats of conetainers were covered with poly-ethylene bags and placed in a walk-in cooler (35-40 degrees) for 90 days.
Growing Area Preparation/
Annual Practices for Perennial Crops:
Once removed from the cooler, the flats were placed in a greenhouse set at moderate temperatures (70 degree days/ 50 degree nights).
Establishment Phase: Seedlings emerged with in one to two weeks after being removed from the cooler. 80% germination occurred.
Other Comments: Trials were also conducted using no cold-moist stratification, (resulting in zero germination), and 45 days of cold-moist stratification which exhibited 5% germination. 90 days cold-moist stratification is optimum.
