Common Name: Long-Spined Thorn-Apple; White Stinkweed; Large Thorn Apple.

Germination Tips: Sow Datura ferox seed in a seed-raising mix just below the surface. Soaking seeds for 24 hours can help soften the seed coat and encourage germination. Keep moist but not wet. Germination generally occurs in around 10-28 days, sometimes up to 4-6 weeks in colder climates.
