- Association Temperature fell with elevation.
- Association Germination capacity rose with temperature.
- Association Lag time declined with temperature.
- Association Seed mass declined with temperature.
- Association Lipid content declined with temperature.
- Observation Germination was thermophilic.
- Observation Base germination temperature ranged from 9.81°C to 12.48°C.
- Observation Ceiling germination temperature was about 34.74°C.
- Observation Thermal-time variation exceeded variation in base and ceiling temperatures.
- Association Elevation or seed percentile affected base temperature and thermal time.
- Association Elevation affected ceiling temperature.
- Observation Suboptimal and supraoptimal thermal times were lowest at 1660 m.
- Observation Suboptimal and supraoptimal thermal times were highest at 2345 and 2500 m.
- Mechanism Suboptimal thermal time varied most and may shape distribution.
- Observation Seeds germinated across 0 to −0.5 MPa in 2.4 days.
- Observation Thirty-two percent of seeds germinated at −1 MPa.
- Observation Unsaturated fatty-acid content peaked at 2500 m.
- Recommendation The authors propose Wigandia as a facilitator for restoration or assisted migration.
