Black Boy Grass Tree Seeds . 

 

HOW TO GROW BLACK BOY / GRASS TREES :

 

Step 1
Sow in warmer climates anytime, for colder climates wait until the last frost is gone. Start in 10cm (4") pots.  Use a well draining sandy soil mix preferably. Plant 2-3 seeds flat on the soil of each pot and cover lightly (about the width of the seed) with more soil.  

Step 2
Water gently and then cover each pot with some plastic wrap (glad wrap) to keep the moisture and humidity inside the pot.

Step 3
Place pots in a warm location to germinate and be sure to keep the soil moist - NOT wet. Germination should occur if ideal conditions are provided between 4-8 weeks.  Once sprouts begin the plastic wrap can be removed. 

Step 4
When fertilising us a native wildflower fertiliser. Seedlings can be planted out once they are well established around 1+ years old.
