Lesser burdock (Arctium minus) 40 Seeds Per Gram

Product Code:  armi40

From Only: £1.79 Ex VAT


Lesser burdock is most characteristically found as a colonizer of fertile disturbed sites near the edge of woodlands or within woodland clearings but is intolerant of deep shade and can also be found in hedgerows, roadsides and waste ground. Lesser burdock takes two to four years to reach maturity. The shade cast by its large rhubarb like leaves suppresses the growth of neighbouring plants. Once the plant has set seed it dies but the space created by the leaves allows the next generation of seedlings to colonize.

We sell Lesser burdock (Arctium minus) seeds per gram; customers should be aware that when ordering more than one gram of Lesser burdock seeds, the entire amount will be bagged together to reduce unnecessary packaging.

Complete Product Information for Lesser burdock (Arctium minus) 40 Seeds Per Gram
Sometimes given the Latin name Arctium lappa ssp. minus. A tall broad-leaved plant with hollow stems and clusters of short-stemmed purple brush-like flower heads which appear from July to September. The bracts of the flower heads end in hooked bristles (a bur) which catch on fur and clothing, allowing the seed to be spread over a large area. The burred fruit and leaves that have a superficial resemblance to those of dock lead to the common name of Burdock.

Sow at any time of the year. Germination can take a long time so a light scarification might be useful.
