I have had poor success when it comes to germination of this species in the past, but I’m giving it another try with seeds from Prairie Moon Nursery https://www.prairiemoon.com/hydrophyllum-virginianum-virginia-waterleaf-prairie-moon-nursery.html 

These are a woodland species, thriving in areas with consistently available moisture, where they can spread to form a dense patch.

Please check out the Prairie Moon listing at the link above for more details.
