Planting Instructions:

Seed Preparation:

Stratify seeds by placing them in moist sand or peat moss in a plastic bag.

Store in the refrigerator for 90-120 days to simulate winter conditions.

Sowing:

Sow seeds in spring after stratification.

Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in pots or seed trays filled with a well-draining seed starting mix.

Cover lightly with soil and water gently.

Germination:

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.

Place the pots or trays in a location with indirect light.

Germination can take 1-2 months, depending on conditions.

Transplanting:

Once seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots.

Harden off seedlings by gradually exposing them to outdoor conditions over 7-10 days before planting in the garden.

Care and Maintenance:

Plant in a location with full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil.

Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but avoid overwatering.

Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds.

Prune as needed to maintain desired shape and remove any dead or diseased branches.
