Pedicularis

[Hoy]

Hmm. I could almost read the Norwegian. (I can read German.)

If you can read German then Norwegian isn't that difficult You just mix English and German

So,what to make of it all?

Whenever I lay my hands on Pedicularis seed I prefere to sow in situ. Seems that many species can use different taxa as hosts. I disperse the seed on different subsrates hoping that at least one site is to its preference.

I'm beginning to think that sowing in situ is the best way to go for almost everything, if you have no greenhouse. Certainly, I would say, for astragalus and other fabaceous species. (i know this is heresy.)
And in the case of hemiparasites I would say that they surely have a better chance of getting established being sown in situ. Less opportunity for maladjustment to the hemiparasitic life, you might say.
