XL Mylar Packet – Tidy Tips SeedsGold Vault Mylar Zip Packet This bright wildflower can be found throughout the southwestern states of California, Utah, and Arizona, The common name “tidy tips” is derived from this flower’s unusual yellow petals, which each have a neatly painted tip of white. The genus name “platyglossa” comes from Greek words meaning “broad-tongued,” referring to the appearance of the foliage. In mild winters, direct sow in late fall on the surface of the soil. In colder climates, direct sow in early spring after the last frost. Do not cover the seed, since it needs light to germinate. Germination usually occurs within 6-10 days at the optimum temperature of 65-70 degrees F. Higher temperatures can prevent germination. This seed can be started indoors, though the young plants must be transplanted early to avoid disturbing the sensitive roots.
