Product Details:
Podophyllum Hexandrum, also known as Himalayan Mayapple or Emodi, is a unique and striking plant that adds an exotic touch to shaded gardens. With large, lobed leaves and distinctive nodding flowers, it stands out as a decorative addition to any shaded area. This plant grows to a mature height of 12 to 18 inches, making it perfect for woodland gardens, shaded borders, and underplanting trees.

Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

• Cold Stratification: To break seed dormancy, place the seeds in a moist, sterile growing medium and store them in the refrigerator for 3-4 months. This mimics winter conditions and improves germination.

Sowing:

• After the stratification period, sow the seeds in pots or seed trays filled with a well-draining seed starting mix.
• Sowing Method: Scatter seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press them in. Do not cover them as the seeds need light to germinate.

Germination:

• Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Germination can be slow and erratic, sometimes taking several weeks to several months, so patience is essential.

Transplanting:

• Once the seedlings have several sets of true leaves and are large enough to handle, transplant them into their permanent location in the garden.
• Spacing: Space plants 12-18 inches apart in a shaded or partially shaded area with rich, well-drained soil.

Care and Maintenance:

• Water regularly to maintain consistent soil moisture, especially during dry periods.
• Apply mulch around the base of the plants to help retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
• Protect plants from strong winds, as their large leaves can be easily damaged.

Happy Gardening!
