Description: XL Mylar Packet - Turtlehead SeedsGold Vault Mylar Zip Packet This native wildflower has unique tubular blossoms that resemble the head of a turtle. A host of common names also compare these flowers to snakes, fish, or shells. The genus name "Chelone" means "tortoise," referring to the Greek myth of a nymph named Chelone who had the misfortune of being transformed into a turtle as a punishment for her insolence. Native Americans once valued this plant as a medicinal herb with cleansing and stimulating effects; when used as an herb it is called Balmony, and has a sharp, tea-like flavor. The stunning Baltimore Checkerspot butterfly frequents this plant, an important larval host and source of nectar. For best results, direct sow in late fall just below the surface of the soil. For spring planting, mix the seed with moist sand and store it in the refrigerator for 100-120 days before direct sowing. These seeds are non-GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms), and are also free from all Neonicotinoids. They are packaged in our superb Gold Mylar Mylar Zip Packaging, which gives the seeds the best storage possible, and allows you to reseal the bag for later use. The artwork and labels on the packet are loaded with information - many people comment that it is the most beautiful packet that they have ever seen. If you have never tried out our seeds before, this is your chance to experience something special!
