{"product_id":"asparagus-fern-indoor-seeds-packet","title":"Asparagus Fern Indoor Houseplant Seeds Packet","description":"\u003cp\u003eAsparagus Fern seeds for the indoor garden that is prepared to commit to the timeline. The asparagus fern is not a fern. It is not asparagus. It is, however, extremely beautiful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAsparagus Fern is feathery, cloud-like foliage that is not actually a fern and does not apologise for this. Each packet is hermetically vacuum-sealed -- removing the oxygen that causes standard paper seed packets to lose germination viability within approximately one year. State law requires a 3-year viability label on sealed packaging. NASA research on hermetic seed storage indicates viability of up to 10 years under proper conditions. Every packet is non-GMO and germination-tested at independent third-party labs before it earns its Japanese woodblock print artwork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to Grow Asparagus Fern from Seed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSowing and Germination\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoak seeds 24 hours before sowing. Sow 1cm deep in warm, moist mix. Keep at 21-24C. Germination 3-6 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCare and Harvest\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBright indirect light. Keep soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Mist regularly for humidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Vacuum-Sealed Seeds Last Longer\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStandard paper seed packets are permeable to oxygen and moisture -- the two primary causes of seed degradation. Most paper-packaged seeds begin losing germination viability after approximately one year, contributing to significant garden-industry waste: packets purchased, not planted, expired, discarded. Shido Seeds are hermetically vacuum-sealed. The packet does not expire quietly in a drawer. It waits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAbout the Packaging\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery Shido seed packet is illustrated in the style of Japanese 1910s woodblock printing -- designed and drawn in-house by Chive, the Toronto ceramics studio that has been exhibiting at the Chelsea Flower Show in London every year and does not, as a matter of principle, sell to big-box retailers. Customers collect the packets as a series. This was not the original plan.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chive Ceramics Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43864465473673,"sku":"SEASPA","price":4.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0375\/5687\/9497\/files\/SEASPA-1.png?v=1763033904","url":"https:\/\/chive.com\/products\/asparagus-fern-indoor-seeds-packet","provider":"Chive Studio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
