China Doll Tree Seeds . 

 

HOW TO GROW CHINA DOLL TREES :


Step 1
Preferably use a sterile peat medium. Seeds should be sown at least 2cm apart and directly on to moistened surface!  You can cover with vermiculite to allow some light to penetrate to the seeds, but keep them moist at the same time! China Doll seeds need light to activate germination. These seeds MUST stay moist at all times, drying out of the medium (peat/soil) will kill them. Note: They are also prone to rot, using an  additive to your medium like BANROT can aid with this.

 

Step 2
A warm greenhouse is an ideal location for germination.  Alternatively cover pot/s with plastic wrap or glass (this will keep warmth and humidity inside pot and also help retain moisture). Optimal  soil temperature for germination is a minimum of 25 degrees Celsius / 80 degrees Fahrenheit. Once germination begins at approximately 2-4 weeks in optimal conditions, if covered with plastic wrap or glass etc, expose some of the pot to allow air circulation and assist seedlings in adapting to its future conditions.

Step 3
China Dolls can be transplanted  when they reach approximately 3".  Use a granular fertiliser at this time also. Best grown indoors and trimmed to ensure plant/s doesn’t grow taller than 6 feet. Can be grown outdoors if temperatures are consistently above 15 degrees Celsius. Keep watered and position in sunlight for at least 4 hours per day.  

Step 4
The final resting position should be in full sun if planted outdoors. China Dolls can begin flowering in 2-3 years.
