Cana Lilly Winter Storage

Question

I have about 50 canna lilly seeds in a (very) small cardboard box. I know about soaking and the process thereafter, but I just want to know if it is ok to leave these seeds in this box so long as it is in a basement shelf that doesn’t get below 60 degrees. Or – should I spread them out in a larger container and place anything on top of them?? Thank you for your advice!

Answer 1

Any seeds that are harvested should be kept dry and stored in a cool location. Make sure the seeds are dry and the box has a lid. I'm not sure how small the box is but they should not be cramped. Here is more about storage containers and planting canna seeds:
