Please help me fill the holes in my germination plan

I do have a few that are incomplete and I am just exhausted from trying to find the pertinent info. So I'm wondering if anyone can help me with the information for;

Streptanthus farnsworthianus_Jewelflower
1.Blooming time (in actual calendar months, not season periods)
2.Germination time
3.Germination soil temp
4. Sowing depth

Streptanthus albidus_Jewelflower
1.Blooming time (in actual calendar months, not season periods)
2.Germination time

Schizanthus grahamii_Pink Butterfly flower

Are these that hard to find information for, or have I overlooked some Dave's Garden protocol in posting this question which is causing it to be ignored?

Near Lake Erie, NW, PA(Zone 5a)

I sometimes check on the Thompson and Morgan seed catalog site. If they offer the seeds they have good germination information. Sorry I can't help, I live up north in the wrong zone for these plants.
Also check plant files, maybe you could d-mail someone who has grown there plants, look at who posted pictures in plant files.
I don't think it is being ignored, just no information readily available.

columbia, TN(Zone 7a)

If they are native Gardens North has good info.

Calgary, AB(Zone 3a)

I grow schizanthus and they like moist conditions and cool nights. Works great for the cool night part here. They bloom all summer here, starting in June. Guess the time of sowing & germination would have some affect on timing of the first blooms.

OSAKA, Japan(Zone 9b)

Hi GardenforGod

I'm also interested in the blooming time .
Actually it depends on the climate where you live in and sowing time,I think.

I live in Japan (zone 9b)
-------------------------------------

*Schizanthus wisetonensis_Butterfly Flower
sowing time:September (at 20~25℃)
Blooming time:March

*Schizanthus grahamii_Pink Butterfly flower

This is the first time to sow S.grahamii.
But I've grown S.coccineus and hookerianum and both of them bloomed at the same time of the year,in April.
Blooming time :So I expect S.grahamii'll bloom in April.


Castilleja indivisa_Indian Paintbrush
1.Germination time: October (at 15℃~18℃)
start of gemination : within 2 weeks
