Native to the deserts of North America, it is exceptionally drought tolerant and thrives in hot, dry climates with well-drained soils. Bright yellow flowers appear in spring and are followed by small, fuzzy seed capsules. Its distinctive resinous fragrance is especially noticeable after rain and is characteristic of desert landscapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"465\" data-end=\"959\"\u003eFor centuries, Chaparral has been used by many Native American peoples for a wide variety of traditional purposes.

Germination may be improved by lightly scarifying the seed coat or soaking seed in warm water for 12–24 hours before sowing. Keep warm with only moderate moisture, avoiding waterlogging. Once established, plant in a sunny position with excellent drainage. Chaparral is highly drought tolerant and requires little supplemental watering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1660\" data-end=\"1784\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1660\" data-end=\"1784\" data-is-last-node=\"\"\u003eDue to quarantine restrictions, TAS has an 800g limit per each seed variety and WA has a 10,000 seeds limit per variety.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eden Seeds","offers":[{"title":"Packet","offer_id":46408581415130,"sku":"prefix_681c1f7385a1d8.59522585","price":4.2,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/4866\/8890\/files\/H_Chaparral_6b4614d3-b2e1-4877-a688-4db793dd8a87.jpg?v=1770862292","url":"https:\/\/www.edenseeds.com.au\/products\/chaparral-1975","provider":"Eden Seeds ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
