Desmanthus Give-away

Recommended Posts

d00d did you scarify them? i germed some D. illinoensis after a day in a mug of water that started near boiling. at that point the seeds were readily germinating, the seed coats disintegrating like crazy, and a day or two later one seedling is already an inch high and healthy.

I have always nicked and soaked other sp. of Desmanthus with good results.

This is some cultivation tips for the D. leptolobus from the European member I

traded with for them.

"Desmanthus can be started in the summer as well - nip the pointy side,soak 24h in water and plant in loose rich soil.."

Na just threw in down in a pot! It's my first instinct :) never do I sow em all, more a small test run. Ill adjust as according :)

Or if I get a few good plants from it ill pass the rest on next season, who knows!
