Regular price $7.79 Save Liquid error (snippets/product-template line 124): Computation results in '-Infinity'%Canna speciosa, also known as Bengal Tiger Canna, is a captivating perennial that stands out with its unique foliage. Growing 4-6 feet tall, it boasts large, lance-shaped leaves with bold green stripes on a creamy background, resembling a tiger's pattern. In summer and fall, it produces eye-catching clusters of vibrant red-yellow flowers atop strong stems. These striking blooms attract pollinators and add a burst of color to gardens. Thriving in full sun and well-draining soil, it's ideal for borders or containers, adding a touch of exotic charm. Regular watering and occasional fertilization support its robust growth, making it a standout feature in outdoor landscapes. Zones 9-11
Germination
To germinate Canna speciosa seeds, start by removing any surrounding pulp or debris. Subsequently, soak the seeds in warm water for approximately 24 hours to soften their seed coats and enhance germination. Following this soaking period, scarify the seeds by gently rubbing them with sandpaper or nicking them with a knife to further promote water absorption. Prepare a seed tray or small pots with a well-draining seed starting mixture, such as a blend of peat moss and perlite. Sow the seeds on the surface of the soil and lightly press them into the mix. Maintain consistent soil moisture levels by misting regularly or using a gentle watering can, while ensuring the soil remains adequately aerated and not waterlogged. Position the tray or pots in a warm environment with indirect sunlight, maintaining a temperature range of 70-80°F (21-27°C). Germination typically occurs within 2-4 weeks. Once seedlings emerge, provide them with sufficient light and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions if transplanting. Canna speciosa thrives in well-drained soil and prefers full sun. Continue to nurture the seedlings with proper watering and light as they develop into mature plants.

Zones 9-11
Germination
Germinating Isopogon formosus seeds can be a rewarding process with attention to certain steps. Start by soaking the seeds in warm water for about 24 hours to soften their hard seed coats. After soaking, plant the seeds in well-draining, sandy soil, either in pots or directly in your garden bed. Sow them at a depth of approximately 1/4 inch. Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged, as these plants prefer well-drained conditions. Germination typically occurs within 4-6 weeks when temperatures are warm, ideally around 70-80°F (21-27°C). Once the seedlings have developed several leaves, you can transplant them to their final location in full sunlight. Patience is key, as Isopogon formosus seeds may have variable germination rates.

Germination
To germinate Aristolochia elegans seeds, first, prepare a seed starting tray or small pots filled with a well-draining seed starting mix, such as a blend of peat moss and perlite. Ensure the soil is evenly moist but not waterlogged. Since Aristolochia elegans seeds have a hard outer coat, scarification is beneficial for better germination. Lightly scarify the seed coat with sandpaper or a sharp knife. Then, soak the seeds in room temperature water for about 24 hours to further soften the seed coat. After scarification and soaking, sow the seeds evenly over the surface of the soil and gently press them into the soil with your fingertips. Cover them lightly with a thin layer of soil. Place the tray or pots in a warm location with indirect sunlight, maintaining a temperature between 70-80°F (21-27°C). Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged by misting regularly or using a gentle watering can. Germination typically occurs within 2-4 weeks. Once the seedlings emerge, provide adequate spacing if growing in trays or transplant them into individual pots when they have developed a few sets of true leaves.

Begin by preparing a well-draining planting medium composed of a mix of sand and peat or a commercial seed-starting mix. Sow the seeds on the surface of the soil mixture, pressing them lightly into the substrate. Moisten the soil gently without oversaturating it, and cover the container with a clear plastic lid or a plastic wrap to create a greenhouse-like environment. Place the container in a warm, brightly lit area, ensuring it receives indirect sunlight. Germination typically occurs within several weeks to a few months, and as the seedlings emerge, gradually expose them to more direct light and adjust watering to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Once the seedlings have developed a few sets of leaves, they can be transplanted carefully into individual pots or an outdoor garden space with well-draining soil and adequate sunlight.

Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged by watering lightly whenever the top inch of soil feels dry. Place the pot in a warm location with indirect sunlight, ensuring temperatures remain between 75-85°F (24-29°C). Germination typically occurs within 2-4 weeks, but it can take longer, so be patient. Once the seedlings emerge, provide them with ample light, gradually acclimating them to direct sunlight. Transplant them into larger containers or outdoors in well-draining soil once they develop a few sets of true leaves. Keep the soil consistently moist during the seedling stage, gradually transitioning to regular watering as the plant matures.

Germinating Leptospermum scoparium 'Nana' seeds can be accomplished with these steps. Begin by preparing a well-draining seed-starting mix or use a mix of equal parts sand and peat moss. Plant the seeds on the soil surface, gently pressing them down without burying them, as they require light for germination. Water the soil thoroughly to ensure good seed-to-soil contact. To maintain humidity and moisture, cover the planting container with a clear plastic lid or plastic wrap. Place the container in a warm location with indirect sunlight or under grow lights. 'Nana' Manuka seeds can be slow to germinate, often taking several weeks to a few months. During this time, maintain consistently moist but not waterlogged soil. Once the seedlings have grown large enough and developed a few sets of true leaves, they can be transplanted into larger pots or your garden, ensuring they have well-drained soil and receive full sun. Leptospermum scoparium 'Nana' is a wonderful choice for compact gardens or container planting, and with patience during germination, you can enjoy its aromatic foliage and attractive blossoms in your landscape.
