Trigonotis icumae

Propagation: Seed - we have no information for this species but suggest sowing the seed in a cold frame in the spring. Prick out the seedlings into individual pots as soon as they are large enough to handle and plant them out in the summer if they are large enough. Otherwise, grow them on in the greenhouse for their first winter and plant them out in early summer of the following year.

Cultivation: We have very little information on this species and do not know if it will be hardy in Britain, though judging by its native range it should succeed outdoors in many parts of this country.

Range: E. Asia - C. and N. Japan, Korea.

Edibility: Young leaves cooked.

Soil: Can grow in light, medium, and heavy soils.

Flower Type: Hermaphrodite

Also Known As: Omphalodes icumae.
