Adenanthera PAVONINA

Sowing and germination

Seeds are soaked for a day in warm water. Sow in a loose, well-drained mixture and germinate at a temperature of 24°C. It is precisely because of the hard shell that the seeds require mandatory scarification, otherwise germination can take a very long time. Usually, after scarification, seeds germinate within 5-10 days, which makes it possible to obtain such a valuable plant in a short time. An alternative to scarification is immersion in boiling water for 1 minute.
