My neighbor gave me two pods. Each pod has about 12 seeds in it. How do I plant them?
Plumeria seed, what do I do with them?
i have not planted plumeria seeds, i do not know Cala. check this site http://www.plumeria101.com/seeds101.html
Plant them with the "winged" end sticking up out of the soil (the actual seed just under the soil "nose" down). Keep them the usual "moist but not wet". It's cool - you know they are germinating when the "wings" start rising!
Yup thats what I did with the seeds I got off ebay,and all but 2 germinated
Course I killed most of the seedlings but thats just me....
Uh oh, I was supposed to leave those "wings" on them?
Here's a great link: http://www.plumeria101.com/seeds101.html
Calalily, I have had seed germinate with and without the wings......the wings do help in knowing how deep to plant the seed, and they act as a wick to help keep excess moisture from building around the germinating seed.
Do follow the info on plumeria101, and I'm sure you'll be fine.
Since the wings are off them, plant the seeds on edge just below surface.They need to be narrow edge up to germinate for some strange reason. :-)
OK, I will do better next time, lol. I'm going to go plant them now. I'll let you guys know how they do. They are seeds from a pink plumie.
Wings, huh...................knew they were little angels!!
"eyes"
Eyes, cross your fingers that they grow up to be rainbow!
Those look great Shelly! I am going to plant them this weekend, I haven't had a chance yet.
