Abstract
Plant seeds designed for germination without substantial delay are coated with a first layer of a mixture of sugar and a water insoluble polymeric material, and have a particulate coating adhered to the first layer while the first layer is still tacky, the first layer being preferably formed from an aqueous coating composition which is cured by simple removal of water therefrom.
