Seed propagation of Radermachera Hainanensis

1. At the end of December, we wait until the radermachera hainanensis fruit has cracked and the seeds are ripe, then we can collect the long strips of fruit.

The remaining seeds are dried and stored until the following spring, when they can be sown.

To plant, first soak them in water for two or three hours, then mix them with wet sand. Then spread them out in large pots in the shed to keep the seeds and sand moist, and in the process to keep them from mildew, until they are ready to be planted in the ground.

3. The stored seeds can also be soaked in water for three to four hours in March or April, then slightly dried, mixed with wet sand and placed on a bed, covered with a thin layer of soil, then covered with plastic film to protect them from moisture. When the seedlings have grown, the film can be lifted off and a shed built for shade.
