Planting Instructions
Seed Preparation:
Stratify seeds by placing them in a moist paper towel inside a plastic bag.
Refrigerate the bag for 60-90 days to mimic winter conditions.
Sowing:
Fill seed trays or pots with a well-draining potting mix.
Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in the soil, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Lightly cover seeds with soil and water gently.
Germination:
Place trays or pots in a warm location with indirect sunlight.
Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Germination may take 1-2 months, so be patient and maintain proper moisture levels.
Transplanting:
Transplant seedlings into larger pots once they have developed several sets of true leaves.
Gradually acclimate the young trees to outdoor conditions if planting outside.
Transplant into the garden or a larger container when the seedlings are sturdy and at least 6 inches tall.
Care and Maintenance:
Provide regular watering, especially during dry spells, but avoid waterlogging the soil.
Mulch around the base of the tree to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Prune selectively to maintain shape and remove dead or damaged branches.
Protect young trees from harsh winds and excessive sun exposure.
Monitor for pests and diseases, and treat promptly if detected.
