When exposed to natural seasonal changes, buried seeds of P. virginica exhibit an annual conditional dormancy/non-dormancy cycle (Baskin et al. 2003). Dormancy is broken in the summer, with the germination season extending from September to November (Baskin et al. 2003). Peak germination for P. virginica occurs in October (Baskin et al. 2003).
