Seeds were first moistened for 48 hrs and thereafter subjected to warm and cold treatment for 1 to 4 week duration. 0 Seed thereafter were put to germination test in Petridis plates on germination paper at 25 C in seed germinator. Germination was recorded after 15 days and continued up to 30 days. In field condition in green house result indicated that at low altitude site has intermediate philological dormancy and seed germination per cent was 25.8% can be overcome at natural site of Girardinia diversifoliawere average germination per cent in different soil media were 52.6% after 4 week.
