Germinating Hints

Afrocarpus take time to germinate so try exposing them to a cool period followed by warm.

Tree seed germinates best in the summer months.

Try a weak acid soak. Seeds germinate like crazy after bats have eaten the fruit and the seeds have passed through the stomach.

Clean the flesh off the seed if this has not already been done.

Good, well drained sandy/compost mix.

Always good to water with a fungicide when planting
