This post actually remind me of my O.Level biology.

Seed dormancy is quite important for some reasons. It is one of the adaptive mechanisms exhibited by plants to ensure survival and dispersal within the environment. As a result of dormancy, seeds can escape a period of unfavourable climatic condition that may have result in death if they had germinated. It also ensures that seeds can be stored for a long time and still be suitable for the use of man, both agricultural and consumption wise.

I think domancy of seed is peculiar with some environment.Am I correct?. @hadji
