The seeds have been in the refrigerator sealed in their foil package with in a sealed baggie all winter which was the manufacturers Park seed suggestion for all their seeds. So do they still need to be chilled moist because we do not have room for the pots in the refrigerator. These are English lavender seeds. By the way I have never seen lavender cuttings available in my area. In my area any type of lavender is considered a Hardy annual but I've been able to overwinter them for several years using deep mulch after about three years their roots are deep enough that they can get through the winter and become true perennials. However last winter we had a very late hard Frost that actually killed off ornamental crab trees most my roses and anything else that was actively growing already including my lavender. So I just thought I would try them from seed rather than having to pay about $4.99 for 3 inch pot when I want about 25 plants. I am sure I can find others in my area that would take any seedlings that are in excess of that should I be successful. Thank you again for your advice
