Sowing guide
- Use a clean, free-draining seed mix in a warm container.
- Sow the flat seed shallowly and cover with a thin layer of medium.
- Water gently and keep evenly moist in bright, indirect light.
- Vent covered trays and avoid cold, saturated compost.
Keep the sowing labelled and allow time for natural variation between seeds.
Growing on
Once seedlings are established, increase light gradually and pot them separately before roots become crowded. Protect young plants from cold and drying wind. Water thoroughly, allow excess water to drain, and let the surface begin to dry before watering again.
Seed-grown trees are naturally variable and may not reproduce every feature of a selected parent. Check local climate, mature size and planting restrictions before moving a tree outdoors.
Seed note: Seeds are living material. Germination speed and percentage vary with seed age, temperature, moisture and local growing conditions. Record the sowing date and treatment so later batches can be adjusted.
