<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> </head> <body> <h2><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong>Banyan Tree Seeds (Ficus benghalensis)</strong></em></span></h2> <h3><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 10 seeds.</strong></span></h3> <div>This is a tropical tree from Asia, in particular India and can grow to immense sizes in its wild state. It is one of the group of strangler figs, where it starts its life deposited on a branch or trunk of a tree by a fig eating bird. The seed rapidly germinates and it starts its life as an epiphyte. It sends out roots that, when they reach the soil below, completely change the nature of the small plant. Boosted by the extra nourishment, it rapidly grows and entwines its host, effectively strangling the very life from it. Eventually the host tree dies and the Banyan is left in its place. By means of aerial roots it forms huge buttressed trunks and can cover an area of 100's of square metres.</div> <div>Capable of growing to over 150 feet tall or more with a spread of 200 - 300 feet or so, this has the potential to become a truly monstrous tree. Pot culture and pruning will keep its size down to more manageable proportions and it does not resent such treatment and will thrive in all sorts of conditions. A tropical tree it is hardy to Zone 11 and is suitable for growing as pot plant or bonsai specimen. It makes an ideal indoor bonsai for those of you looking for a true permanent indoor specimen.</div> <div> <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign="top" width="100%"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Instructions</strong></span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Propagation:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Seeds</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Pretreat:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">0</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Stratification:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">0</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">all year round </span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Depth:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Cover lightly with substrate</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Mix:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Coir or sowing mix + sand or perlite</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Germination temperature:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">25 ° C + </span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Location:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">bright + keep constantly moist not wet</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Germination Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">until it germinates </span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Watering:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Water regularly during the growing season</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong> </strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><br /><span style="color: #008000;"><em>Copyright © 2012 Seeds Gallery - Saatgut Galerie - Galerija semena. </em><em>All Rights Reserved.</em><em></em></span></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </body> </html>

<h2><strong>Granny Smith Apple Seeds (Malus sylvestris)<br /></strong></h2> <h2><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 5 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <div>One of the most commonly requested types of apple tree is the granny smith apple tree. The granny smith apple tree produces fruit that is tart and delicious. The apples from a granny smith apple tree are unique, in that they do not change in color from green. Most apples, once mature, will either turn red or yellow, and sometimes a combination of the two. It is harder to tell a mature granny smith apple from a younger one, in that they are both green.</div> <div>The fruit produced by a granny smith apple tree is an all-purpose apple with green skin and firm crisp flesh. The fruit can be eaten straight off the tree, or cooked in a variety of fashions. The flesh of a granny smith apple will remain crisp for longer than many other breeds once the apple has been cut. The granny smith apple tree is believed to have originally come from the seed of a French crab apple.</div> <div>Granny smith apple trees are not self-pollinating. This means that another type of apple tree is needed in order for the granny smith apple tree to produce fruit. Like most other apple trees, the pollinating tree used with a granny smith does not really matter that much. As long as the pollen is fertile, nearly any apple tree will be able to pollinate a granny smith apple tree and create delicious fruit.</div> <div>Granny smith apple trees are hardy in zones six through eight, and require a good deal of sunlight. When pruned and cared for properly, a granny smith apple tree will grow for over fifty years. Granny smith apple trees do not require very much support, as they are typically able to support their own weight. In the semi-dwarf state, granny smith apple trees will grow to fourteen feet high.</div> <div>How to Grow Apple Trees From Seed</div> <div>Put the seeds in a container or zip lock bag. You can also add soil if you wish. Place the container or bag in your refrigerator for about 3 months.</div> <div>If you chose to add soil you can moisten the soil after about 10 or 11 weeks. Keep a good watch on the bag and let fresh air in often. You should start to see leaves popping out of the soil in a few weeks if everything went right.</div> <div>If you didn't choose to add soil you can try to plant the seeds directly into pots or in the ground. If you time it out you can let the seeds dry over the winter and put them into the refrigerator 3 months before the frost usually leaves. Cool weather seems to help apple seeds sprout as well. </div> <div> </div> <h2><span style="color:#008000;">How to grow an Apple Tree from seeds: </span></h2> <div><a href="https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=how+to+grow+an+apple+tree+from+seed" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"><span style="font-size:12pt;"><strong>https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=how+to+grow+an+apple+tree+from+seed</strong></span></a></div>

De boom kan een hoogte bereiken van 25 tot 35 meter.</span></p> <p>De tamme kastanje is herkenbaar aan de lange, grof gezaagde<span> </span>lancetvormige<span> </span>bladeren. Deze zijn glanzend donkergroen aan de bovenzijde en de onderzijde is iets lichter. Na het uitlopen van de bladeren verschijnen de hoofdjesachtige mannelijke bloemen die als een parelsnoer aan rechtopstaande, lange katjes zitten. De vrouwelijke bloemen bevinden zich aan de basis van de katjes, omgeven door een groene, schubachtig bebladerde vruchtbeker. Kevertjes, vliegen en bijen zijn de bestuivers van de tamme kastanje. Van de mannelijke bloemen gaat een geur uit die kevers aanlokt en op de stempel bevindt zich een zoetsmakend druppeltje nectar. Aan de rijpe vrucht blijft vaak de mannelijke, aarvormige bloeiwijze zitten.</p> <p>De vruchten zijn leerachtige, glanzend bruine noten. Meestal zitten er drie bijeen in een geelbruine, gestekelde, vrij grote vruchtbeker (cupola). Deze openen zich met vier kleppen. De stekels zijn een soort afweerwapen tegen de voortijdige aanval door vogels en eekhoorns.</p> <p>Meerstammigheid is een bekend verschijnsel bij de tamme kastanje.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Vrucht">Vrucht</span></h3> <p>De<span> </span>vrucht<span> </span>van de tamme kastanje is een<span> </span>noot<span> </span>die met twee tot vier stuks in een<span> </span>bolster (napje)<span> </span>zitten. Deze bolster wordt gevormd door schutbladen. De vruchten ("kastanjes") kunnen, nadat de stekelige bolster is verwijderd, worden gekookt, geschild en gegeten. Dit is in tegenstelling tot de kastanjes van de giftige<span> </span>paardenkastanje<span> </span>(<i>Aesculus hippocastanum</i>), die overigens bij een geheel andere<span> </span>familie<span> </span>behoort, de<span> </span>zeepboomfamilie<span> </span>(<i>Sapindaceae</i>). De herfst is de tijd dat de rijpe vruchten vallen.</p> <p>Onder meer<span> </span>eekhoorns,<span> </span>gaaien,<span> </span>kraaien,<span> </span>muizen,<span> </span>wilde zwijnen<span> </span>en mensen eten de kastanjes. Zij zorgen ervoor dat de bomen zich in het wild verspreiden.</p> <p>Ook veel insecten eten van de kastanjes, waarvan<span> </span><i>Curculio elephas</i><span> </span>de belangrijkste is.

Daar groeit hij in mediterrane eikenbossen in gebieden met warme zomers en zachte winters, meestal op silicaathoudend gesteente. Ten noorden van de Alpen is het een oude cultuurplant en vaak verwilderd.</p> <p>Men heeft verondersteld dat de Romeinen de tamme kastanje naar Noord-Europa gebracht hebben. Volgens nieuwe onderzoekingen groeide hij daar al tijdens het late ijzertijdperk rond 200 voor Christus. Mogelijk hebben de Kelten de eetbare vruchten meegenomen en voor verspreiding gezorgd. Dat lukte vooral in de warmere gebieden van het Rijndal. Later gingen de Romeinen de tamme kastanje steeds vaker verbouwen om hun legioenen van voedsel te voorzien. In middeleeuwse kloostertuinen werd hij doelgericht aangeplant.</p> <p>In Zuid-Engeland staan heel grote exemplaren. In Noord-Amerika zijn de aaneengesloten bossen van de Amerikaanse tamme kastanje (<i>Castanea dentata</i>) door de kastanjepest voor het grootste deel verdwenen.</p> <h3><span id="Verspreiding_in_Belgi.C3.AB_en_Nederland"></span><span class="mw-headline" id="Verspreiding_in_België_en_Nederland">Verspreiding in België en Nederland</span></h3> <p>In Nederland en België komt de boom verwilderd voor en verder op oude landgoederen. Hij is hier ingevoerd door de<span> </span>Romeinen<span> </span>vanwege de vruchten. Met name in het zuidoosten van Nederland zijn vrij veel oudere tamme kastanjes te vinden. Monumentale exemplaren zijn te vinden bij<span> </span>Beek-Ubbergen<span> </span>(de Kabouterboom in het Kastanjedal), in<span> </span>Arnhem<span> </span>en op diverse plaatsen in<span> </span>Limburg.</p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Plantengemeenschap">Plantengemeenschap</span></h2> <p>De tamme kastanje is een<span> </span>kensoort<span> </span>voor het<span> </span>zomereik-verbond<span> </span>(<i>Quercion roboris</i>).</p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Gebruik">Gebruik</span></h2> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Culinair">Culinair</span></h3> <p>De vruchten van de tamme kastanje kunnen, in tegenstelling tot die van de<span> </span>paardenkastanje, gegeten worden. Men kan de kastanjes rauw eten, poffen, roosteren of koken. Ook kan men gedroogde kastanjes verwerken in meel.</p> <p>In talloze landen in met name Midden-Europa worden<span> </span>gepofte<span> </span>kastanjes meteen na de oogst in de nazomer op straat verkocht. In veel landen, onder andere in Frankrijk, Zuid-Tirol en Hongarije is de<span> </span>kastanjepuree<span> </span>("crème de marron", "gesztenyepüré") geliefd in desserts of als bijgerecht. Kastanjepuree is in<span> </span>blik<span> </span>of gemalen uit de diepvries te koop. In Nederland worden kastanjes wel gepoft of gekookt.</p> <p>In het Italiaanse<span> </span>Casola in Lunigiana<span> </span>worden gedroogde tamme kastanjes gemalen en het meel gebruikt voor het bakken van het brood<span> </span><i>la marocca di Casola</i>, dat voor het grootste deel uit tammekastanjemeel bestaat en verder aangevuld wordt met tarwebloem.</p> <h3><span class="mw-headline" id="Hout">Hout</span></h3> <p>Het hout van de boom is uitstekend timmerhout: het lijkt qua kleur en structuur op<span> </span>eikenhout.

Hierdoor verkleurt het hout in contact met ijzer. Het wordt veel gebruikt om hekken van te maken.</p> <p>Het hout van de tamme kastanje is fijnvezelig en zeer goed bestand tegen vocht. Het is houdbaarder dan eikenhout en daarom zeer geschikt voor het vervaardigen van tuinmeubels, bruggen, steunpalen voor druivenstokken en vaten.</p> <p><b>Eigenschappen</b><sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"></sup></p> <ul> <li>Duurzaamheidsklasse : II kernhout, V spinthout</li> <li>Volumieke massa : 600 kg/m³</li> <li>Radiale krimp : 0,6 - 0,7 %</li> <li>Tangentiale krimp : 0,9 - 1,3 %</li> <li>Werken : 1,5 - 2 %</li> </ul> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Levensduur">Levensduur</span></h2> <p>De tamme kastanje heeft een levensverwachting van 200 tot 500 jaar.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference">[4]</sup><span> </span>Op het Italiaanse eiland<span> </span>Sicilië<span> </span>staat in de gemeente<span> </span>Sant'Alfio, op de hellingen van de vulkaan<span> </span>Etna, een tamme kastanje, de<span> </span>Kastanjeboom van de Honderd Paarden, die ongeveer 2500 jaar oud zou zijn.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference">[5]</sup></p> <h2><span class="mw-headline" id="Naamgeving">Naamgeving</span></h2> <p>Zijn naam heeft de tamme kastanje waarschijnlijk te danken aan de Griekse stad Kastanéia in<span> </span>Pontus, een historische landstreek aan de kust van de Zwarte Zee, waar men hem op grote schaal cultiveerde.

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <h2><strong>Feijoa, Pineapple Guava Seeds (Acca sellowiana)</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 5 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <p>Here's a shrub to show visitors to your garden - with grey-green leaves, white-felted beneath, and most attractive and rather unusual flowers with crimson and white petals and numerous prominent crimson stamens. In hot summer, these are followed by egg-sized and shaped berries that are edible, having a Guava-like flavor. However, not only are these fruits edible but the flower petals also, these having a rich, aromatic flavour. Almost hardy, but likes a warm, sunny position. Brazil.</p> <p>Acca sellowiana, a species of flowering plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae, is native to the highlands of southern Brazil, eastern Paraguay, Uruguay, and northern Argentina, and Colombia.[1] It is widely cultivated as a garden plant and fruiting tree in New Zealand and can be found as a garden plant elsewhere such as in Australia, Azerbaijan, the West part of Georgia, South part of Russia and South Africa. [2] Common names include feijoa (pron.: /feɪˈʒoʊ.ə/, /feɪˈdʒoʊ.ə/,[3] or /feɪˈhoʊ.ə/)[4] pineapple guava and guavasteen. It is an evergreen, perennial shrub or small tree, 1–7 meters (3.3–23 ft) in height, widely cultivated as a garden plant and fruiting tree. The German botanist Otto Karl Berg named feijoa after João da Silva Feijó, a Portuguese botanist born in the colony of Brazil.</p> <p><strong>Fruit</strong></p> <p>The fruit, maturing in autumn, is green, ellipsoid, and about the size of a chicken egg. It has a sweet, aromatic flavor. The flesh is juicy and is divided into a clear gelatinous seed pulp and a firmer, slightly granular, opaque flesh nearer the skin. The fruit falls to the ground when ripe and at its fullest flavor, but it may be picked from the tree prior to falling to prevent bruising.</p> <p>The fruit pulp resembles the closely related guava, having a gritty texture. The feijoa pulp is used in some natural cosmetic products as an exfoliant. Feijoa fruit has a distinctive, potent smell that resembles that of a fine perfume. The aroma is due to the ester methyl benzoate and related compounds that exist in the fruit.</p> <p><strong>Growing conditions</strong></p> <p>It is a warm-temperate to subtropical plant that also will grow in the tropics, but requires at least 50 hours of winter chilling to fruit, and is frost-tolerant. When grown from seed, feijoas are noted for extremely slow growth during their first year or two, and young plants, though cold tolerant, can be very sensitive to high wind.</p> <p>In the Northern Hemisphere, this species has been cultivated as far north as western Scotland, but under such conditions, it does not fruit every year, as winter temperatures below approximately −9 °C (16 °F) kill the flower buds. Summer temperatures above 90 °F (32 °C) may also have an adverse effect upon the fruit set. Feijoas are somewhat tolerant of drought and salt in soils, though fruit production can be adversely affected. Tolerant to partial shade, regular watering is essential while the fruit is maturing.</p> <p><strong>Seasonality</strong></p> <p>Large quantities of the fruit are grown in New Zealand, where it is a popular garden tree and the fruit commonly is available in season; the season runs from March to June. Feijoas are occasionally to be found as landscape plants in the far Southern United States, in regions from Texas to Florida, and southern California, though the fruit set can be unreliable in those locations. They are also grown in parts of northern California for their fruit. Fruits are an extremely rare sight away from cultivation areas, and when they can be found, they are often very, very expensive due to scarcity and demand even in places where the fruit isn't well-known.</p> <p>Hardier varieties are grown in the Russian region of Buriatia (city Ulan-Ude).</p> <p><strong>Consumption and uses</strong></p> <p>The fruit usually is eaten by cutting it in half, then scooping out the pulp with a spoon.[5] The fruit has a juicy, sweet seed pulp and slightly gritty flesh nearer the skin. If the utensils needed to eat it this way are not available, the feijoa may be torn or bitten in half, and the contents squeezed out and consumed. An alternative method is to bite the end off and then tear the fruit in half lengthways, exposing a larger surface with less curvature and using one's teeth to scrape the pulp out closer to the skin. This method results in less waste of the fruit.</p> <p>A feijoa may be used as an interesting addition to a fruit smoothie and may be used to make wine or cider and feijoa-infused vodka. The flavor is aromatic, very strong and complex, inviting comparison with guava, strawberry, pineapple, and often containing a faint wintergreen-like aftertaste. It also is possible to buy feijoa yogurt, fruit drinks, jam, ice cream, and such in New Zealand. It also may be cooked and used in dishes where one would use stewed fruit. It is a popular ingredient in chutney. The very strong, complex flavor can make using feijoas, in combination with other fruits or vegetables, a creative and complex undertaking.</p> <p>Fruit maturity is not always apparent visually, as the fruits remain the same shade of green until they are overripe or rotting. One usually may sense ripeness, however, by giving the fruit a soft squeeze; a ripe feijoa will yield to pressure somewhat like a just-ripe banana. Generally, the fruit is at its optimum ripeness the day it drops from the tree. While still hanging, it may well prove bitter; once fallen, however, the fruit very quickly becomes overripe, so a daily collection of fallen fruit is advisable during the season.</p> <p>When the fruit is immature, the seed pulp is white and opaque. It becomes clear and gelatinous when ripe. Fruits are at their optimum maturity when the seed pulp has turned into a clear jelly with no hint of browning. Once the seed pulp and surrounding flesh start to brown, the fruit is overripe, but still may be eaten, or used to make a delicious juice.</p> <p>The flower petals are edible, with a flavor that is slightly sweet with hints of cinnamon. The most common use is as an addition to salads. They regularly are consumed by birds.</p> <p>Feijoa is also cultivated in Azerbaijan. Besides its consumption in natural form, feijoa jam and compote is prepared and produced both in-home and on industrial scales.</p> <p><strong>Cultivation</strong></p> <p>Some grafted cultivars of feijoa are self-fertile. Most are not, and require a pollinator. Seedlings may or may not be of usable quality, and may or may not be self-fertile. Feijoas will mature into a sprawly shrub, but can be kept successfully as a large container plant, though accommodations will need to be made for the width of the plants, and the need to encourage new growth for fruit production. They can succeed in greenhouses in temperate parts of the United States, and have been grown in-ground as fruiting trees on the United States east coast in coastal Georgia and South Carolina as well as in California. Other regions of the United States: the Pacific Northwest, the southernmost Appalachian Mountains, and the immediate coastal region from North Carolina to Delaware all would warrant further investigation.</p> <p>In California, robins, mockingbirds, hummingbirds, starlings, scrub jays, towhees, and grey squirrels feast on the petals and are presumed to be assisting with pollination.[citation needed] Honeybees also visit the flowers.</p> <p>In the South Caucasus, feijoa was cultivated in the southern coastal region of Azerbaijan since 1928; cultivation in neighboring Georgia has gradually increased to about 988 hectares in 1986.</p> <p>In New Zealand, the pollinators of this plant are bees, bumblebees, and medium-sized birds. The silvereye is a pollinator in the cooler parts of the South Island; the blackbird and the Indian myna, which feeds on the sweet, fleshy flower petals, are pollinators further north.</p> <p>In some areas where the species has been introduced, however, the trees have been unproductive due to lack of pollinators. The shrub has very few insect pests.</p>

The species is found in all states of mainland Australia.</div> <div>A shrub, four metres tall, erect, with drooping branchlets, almost leafless. The species bears flowering branchlets, which may have small, greenish-yellow, and stalkless leaves. The flowers are just 1 mm across and of a similar colour, occasionally white. The fruit of this species is egg-shaped, pink or red, and between 4 and 5 mm long.</div> <div>The habit of this plant is upright, becoming slightly curved, combining with the many regular branches to form a rounded aspect. The smooth and spherical appearance of the species is given by the droop of the branchlets, the similar colour and size of the leaves and flowers, and upcurving of the outward branches.</div> <div>The specific name is derived from the Latin word esparto, referring to a kind of Spanish grass that was used for its fibre. It was first described by Robert Brown, in 1810, having collected the plants on his visit to King George Sound in 1802. One of the species' common names, Native Cherry, is given to another cogenor with an edible fruit, Exocarpos cupressiformis; both of these species are known as sorts of Ballart.</div> <div>A shrub, four metres tall, erect, with drooping branches.</div> <div>The fruit is egg-shaped, pink or red.</div> <div>The tree look similar to a small cypress tree, but it has sweet, juicy fruits which are eaten fresh.</div> <div>The sap was used by the Aboriginals  as a treatment for snake bites.</div> <table border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign="top" width="100%"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Instructions</strong></span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Propagation:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Seeds</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Pretreat:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">soak in water for 24  hours</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Stratification:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">3 months in moist sowing mix at 2-5 ° C refrigerator</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">all year round</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Depth:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">0,5-1 cm</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Mix:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Coir or sowing mix + sand or perlite</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Germination temperature:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">min. 20 ° C</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Location:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">bright + keep constantly moist not wet</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Germination Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">until it germinates </span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Watering:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Water regularly during the growing season</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong> </strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><br /><span style="color: #008000;"><em>Copyright © 2012 Seeds Gallery - Saatgut Galerie - Galerija semena. </em><em>All Rights Reserved.</em></span></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>

<h2><strong>Japanese Red Maple Seeds (Acer palmatum atropurpureum)</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color:#ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 5 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <p><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:1.5em;">Japanese maple, Acer palmatum, is a deciduous shrub or small tree with a broad, rounded shape. Native to China, Korea and Japan, this lovely plant is greatly admired and is grown in temperate gardens and landscapes all over the world. This red 'ATTROPURPUREUM" variety is possibly even more beautiful than the standard and more commonly offered version and it is one of the most beautiful small trees for an ornamental landscape. It is perfectly suited as a specimen tree, an accent in a mixed border, or in a container on the patio. It anchors the Japanese style garden. </span></p> <p>The brilliant autumn foliage lights up the garden, and the slender twigs and contorted branches provide winter interest. The canopy is wispy and delicate, and in some cultivars, weeping. The species usually stays about 4 to 6 m tall and wide, but can get larger under ideal conditions. It has slender, glabrous twigs and smooth gray bark. Branches tend to grow in horizontal layers, and often are contorted and twisted, and some specimens have more than one main trunk. The palmate leaves are 5-13 cm long and wide, and deeply dissected with 5 to 11 lobes. The lobes are lance shaped, sharply pointed at the tips and doubly toothed on the edges. Acer palmatum attropurpureum is famous for its autumn display when leaves turn brilliant shades of deep red. </p> <p>It needs a fertile, well drained, acidic soil with filtered to full shade, the latter being best in warmer regions. It will take sub-tropical heat. Highly frost resistant it is not drought tolerant and needs regular watering.</p> <p>Japanese maple will grow from seeds, and seedlings tend to be faster growing, stronger and more drought tolerant than cultivars.</p> <div> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="1"><tbody><tr><td colspan="2" width="100%" valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Sowing Instructions</strong></span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Propagation:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">Seeds</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Pretreat:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">0</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Stratification:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">3-4 months in moist sowing mix at 2-5 ° C refrigerator</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Sowing Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">all year round&gt; Autumn / Winter preferred</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Sowing Depth:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">1 cm</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Sowing Mix:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">Coir or sowing mix + sand or perlite</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Germination temperature:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">18-20 ° C</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Location:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">bright + keep constantly moist not wet</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Germination Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">3-6 weeks</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>Watering:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color:#008000;">Water regularly during the growing season</span></p> </td> </tr><tr><td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong> </strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><br /><span style="color:#008000;"><em>Copyright © 2012 Seeds Gallery - Saatgut Galerie - Galerija semena. </em><em>All Rights Reserved.</em><em></em></span></p> </td> </tr></tbody></table></div>

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> </head> <body> <h2><strong>Paulownia Tomentosa Seeds (Empress, Foxglove Tree)</strong></h2> <h2><strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">Price for Package of 25 seeds.</span></strong></h2> <p>Paulownia tormentosa is known by many names; regardless of what you want to call it, there is no doubt about its impressive ornamental features. This beautiful tree puts on an awe inspiring show in spring. Its soft chamois velvet buds open into large violet to blue, trumpet-like blossoms which fill the air with a sweet fragrance. The flowers carried on long up curved shoots, look like large foxgloves.</p> <p>The huge leaves are an architectural delight: the soft, downy, large leaves appear after the flowers have opened.</p> <p>Native to eastern Asia, this exotic looking, deciduous tree is surprisingly hardy and can tolerate harsh winters, to - 8*C (-14*F). Hardy throughout the British Isles, the buds of the Foxglove-like flowers are formed in the autumn and can be damaged by late frosts. They must be sheltered from hard frosts to ensure the violet blooms appear in spring.</p> <div> <div>It is a fast growing tree, usually grown as a specimen or shade tree. Growing rapidly (to 6f)t in it first year. In 3-5 years, this tree achieves what many other tree species take generations to achieve. An excellent use of this plant is the production of "stooled" specimens giving perhaps the most magnificent of all foliage dot plants. All growth is cut down to ground level each March and the resultant suckers reduced to a single shoot. The result is a strong, erect growth rising to 10 ft. and bearing huge and handsome leaves, producing a most striking effect. In very cold zones they are often grown and cut to near ground level in autumn and grown as a large-leafed shrub the following season.</div> <div>Very easy to germinate, seedlings grow rapidly, flowering in as little as 2-3 years under good growing conditions.</div> <div>It has been awarded the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.</div> <div>Named after the Princess of the Dutch region, Anna Paulowna, who died in 1865. It has never been found in the wild although it undoubtedly originated in China where an old custom is to plant an Empress Tree when a baby girl is born. The fast-growing tree matures as she does. When she is eligible for marriage the tree is cut down and carved into wooden articles for her dowry. Carving the wood of Paulownia is an art form in Japan and China.</div> <div>Sowing: </div> <div>Sow September to May</div> <div>The seeds are very small so sow as thinly as possible to avoid crowding which leave seedlings more susceptible to damping off. Place the seeds on the surface of a tray containing well drained compost. Do not cover the seeds as light is required for germination.</div> <div>Stand the tray in water to soak and either cover with a plastic dome or place the tray into a plastic bag. Temperatures should ideally not exceed 30*C (85*F) during the daytime and not below 18*C (60*F) at night. Always keep the soil mixture moist (not soaked) during the germination process. The seeds will germinate in 30 – 60 days and grow rapidly when conditions are favourable.</div> <div>Growing: </div> <div>After germination, remove the cover or bag. When seedlings are big enough to handle (about 2-3 weeks), carefully transfer to pots. Grow on until they are strong enough to plant into their permanent positions. Harden off before planting out (after the last expected frosts).</div> <div>Aftercare: </div> <div>Pruning should be done in autumn after leaf drop. prune down to where an axillary bud can take over as the single leader. Coppicing a tree annually sacrifices the flowers but produces 3m (10ft) stems with enormous leaves up to 60cm (2ft) across.</div> <div>Plant Uses: </div> <div>A specimen tree, shade tree, or focal point.</div> <span style="font-size: 11px; line-height: 1.5em;">Fully hardy to -25°C.</span></div> <div> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2" width="100%" valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Instructions</strong></span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Propagation:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Seeds</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Pretreat:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">0</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Stratification:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">0</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">all year round </span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p><span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Sowing Depth:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p><span style="color: #008000;">Light germinator!

With silvery-blue, rounded young leaves that give way to long, glaucous, sickle-shaped adult foliage and smooth whitish-green bark that is shed annually in late summer to reveal greyish-green bark, sometimes flushed pink or orange. Although not often seen in the UK, it can bear beautiful creamy-white blooms when it flowers in summer.</div> <div>Eucalyptus are naturally trees, sometimes reaching a great height, but in gardens regular firm annual pruning can keep them as large shrubs and maintain a supply of the juvenile foliage enjoyed by gardeners and flower arrangers. Ideal in a pot on the patio, it can be grown to form a standard tree and clipped regularly for a compact head of silver-blue foliage which produce a scented natural oil that will keep bugs and knats at bay.</div> <div>This magnificent evergreen, fast growing specimen can grow up to 1m (36in) in the first year and once established, are hardy to -18°C  (0°F). Easy to care for, it requires minimum attention.</div> <div>Awarded the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit (AGM).</div> <div>Sowing:</div> <div>Germination: Indoors, lightly Cover with uncompacted soil Water well. Keep in a sunny position.</div> <div>Contains seeds(black) and growth medium(brown).Use mixture: DON’T separate out seeds.</div> <div>Sowing into containers:</div> <div>Germination: Indoors, lightly Cover with uncompacted soil Water well. Keep in a sunny position.</div> <div>Contains seeds(black) and growth medium(brown).Use mixture: DON’T separate out seeds.</div> <div>, well drained and sterile compost. (John Innes or 50% multi-purpose and 50% perlite or coarse grit.). Cover with sieved compost or vermiculite. Provide bottom heat if possible. and cover pots with plastic or glass to retain moisture and humidity and protect the seed. Keep moist at all times.</div> <div>When large enough to handle, transplant/prick out each seedling in its own pot of multi-purpose compost. Seedlings in shallow seed trays need transplanting promptly, handling them carefully by holding the seed leaves, rather than the emerging true adult leaves. Seedlings in root trainers can be left a little longer before transplanting, allowing their roots to fill the module, and then transplanting the whole plug of roots and compost in one go.</div> <div>Cultivation:</div> <div>Water regularly, as needed, and feed with liquid fertiliser every month, growing the seedlings on into small plants. The following spring or summer, when the plants are more robust, harden off for 10-14 days before planting out.</div> <div>Plant them out into the garden in late summer to early autumn, giving them the winter to settle their roots into the soil before coming into active growth the following spring. Best grown in sunny sheltered spots. Cold winds are more injurious than frost.</div> <div>Planting guide:</div> <div>Water pot thoroughly and allow to drain. If planting in a lawn, remove a circle of turf 60cm (24in) across. Dig a hole twice the size of the pot and fork over the base, incorporating a handful of general fertiliser and a bucketful of planting compost. Drive in a tree stake a little off-centre. Remove the pot and tease out any matted roots. Position the tree against stake with top of root ball level with surrounding soil. Replace remaining soil, firming-in well. Secure tree to stake with adjustable strap. Water thoroughly, then once a week during the first growing season and during dry spells while the tree is establishing. Garden-grown specimens should not require regular feeding.</div> <div>Container Specimens:</div> <div>Grow in any good multi-purpose potting media or soil-based ones such as John Innes No 2 or No 3. Adding up to 30 percent by volume of coarse grit is often helpful. They benefit from monthly feeding with a balanced liquid fertiliser. Keep the compost moist during the growing season and reduce watering in winter. Repot every two years.</div> <div>Pruning:</div> <div>Requires minimal pruning if grown as a tree, removing any broken, diseased or crossing branches in late autumn or winter. For the best juvenile foliage, prune in early spring cutting back the stems to two or three buds above the base.</div> <div>Plant uses:</div> <div>Containers, Flower Arranging, Architectural, Sub-Tropical, Foliage Specimen.</div> <div>Other Uses:</div> <div>When crushed, the leaves produce a scented natural oil which is often used for cleaning and as a natural insecticide. Natural Dyes from the leaves &amp; bark can give pretty colours, usually ranging from tan &amp; yellow through to rust &amp; red. It is also used for producing paper.</div> <div>Nomenclature:</div> <div>Eucalyptus (From Greek, meaning "well covered") is a diverse genus of trees (and a few shrubs), the members of which dominate the tree flora of Australia.</div> <div> <p>There are more than seven hundred species of Eucalyptus, mostly native to Australia, with a very small number found in adjacent parts of New Guinea and Indonesia and one as far north as the Philippines islands.</p> </div> <div>Many, but far from all, are known as gum trees in reference to the habit of many species to exude copious sap from any break in the bark (e.g. Scribbly Gum).</div> <div>Flowers:           July to October, white to cream, (not often seen in the UK)</div> <div>Foliage:           Fragrant, elliptic, grey-green horizontal branches</div> <div>Height:             15-20m (15-20ft) if unpruned in 15-20 years. Broadly conical.</div> <div>Spread:            8-12m (12-15ft) if unpruned in 15-20 years</div> <div>Soil type:         Prefers neutral to slightly acidic soil that doesn't dry out</div> <div>Position:          Full sun to part shade</div> </body> </html>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" /> <h2><strong>Black Mulberry Seeds (Morus nigra)</strong></h2> <h2><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Price for Package of 50 seeds.</strong></span></h2> <div>Morus nigra, the black mulberry, is a species of flowering plant in the family Moraceae, native to southwestern Asia, where it has been cultivated for so long that its precise natural range is unknown.  It is known for its large number of chromosomes, as it has 154 pairs (308 individuals).</div> <p><strong>Description</strong></p> <p>Morus nigra is a deciduous tree growing to 12 m (39 ft) tall by 15 m (49 ft) broad. The leaves are 10–20 cm (4–8 in) long by 6–10 cm (2–4 in) broad - up to 23 cm (9 in) long on vigorous shoots, downy on the underside, the upper surface rough with very short, stiff hairs.</p> <p>The edible fruit is dark purple, almost black, when ripe, 2–3 centimetres (0.8–1.2 in) long, a compound cluster of several small drupes; it is richly flavoured, similar to the red mulberry (Morus rubra) but unlike the more insipid fruit of the white mulberry (Morus alba).</p> <p><strong>Cultivation and uses</strong></p> <p>Black mulberry has long been cultivated for its edible fruit and is planted and often naturalised west across much of Europe, including Ukraine, and east into China.</p> <p>The black (Morus nigra) and white (Morus alba) mulberries are all widespread in Pakistan, Iran, India, and Afghanistan, where the tree and the fruit are known by the Persian-derived names toot (mulberry) or shahtoot (شاه توت) (king's or "superior" mulberry). Jams and sherbets are often made from the fruit in this region.</p> <div> <p>The black mulberry was imported into Britain in the 17th century in the hope that it would be useful in the cultivation of silkworms (Bombyx mori). It was unsuccessful because silkworms prefer the white mulberry, but has left a legacy of large and old trees in many country house gardens. Care is needed to prevent the crushed berries from staining carpets in the houses nearby.</p> <div> <table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="2" width="100%" valign="top"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Sowing Instructions</strong></span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Propagation:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>Seeds</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Pretreat:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>0</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Stratification:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>0</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Sowing Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>all year round</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Sowing Depth:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>Cover lightly with substrate</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Sowing Mix:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>Coir or sowing mix + sand or perlite</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Germination temperature:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>18-25°C</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Location:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>bright + keep constantly moist not wet</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Germination Time:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>14 - 45 days</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> <p align="center"><span><strong>Watering:</strong></span></p> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><span>Water regularly during the growing season</span></p> </td> </tr> <tr> <td valign="top" nowrap="nowrap"> </td> <td valign="top"> <p align="center"><br /><span><em>Copyright © 2012 Seeds Gallery - Saatgut Galerie - Galerija semena. </em><em>All Rights Reserved.</em></span></p> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table> </div> </div>
