• Details
  Our bulbs are grown in red clay on our farm. We package them in moss for safe travels to you.
  (If you are experiencing any problems during checkout ie. "Item not available in your area." Contact us and we can sort this out for you.)
  Our seed pods are harvested at just the right time while still closed yet ripe. We dehydrate them at 35 degrees and put the in plastic seed containers for the perfect condition until use.
  We sell the red clay substrate 100g which we recommend using, and a sheet of moss which we recommend place on top of the substrate once the seeds are sown.
  We also recommend buying one 2 year bulb o grow in the same substrate as the seeds, success of germination is significantly higher when a bulb is grown near them, a 2 year old bulb is sufficient, this is because of a relationship with mycorrhizal fungus.
  
  How to sow: mix the red clay substrate with potting soil - in a seeding tray 7-10cm thick, water substrate then compact it with your fist. Take the seed pod and crushed it slightly, a fine dust of seeds will come out, once the seeds are out do not touch them. Cover with the moss sheet, then water gently, the water will disperse the seeds more.
  
  Place the tray in the fridge for 12 weeks for a chilling time.
  
  Take the tray out and place in partial shade spray with water once a week.
  
  germination in 8 or 11 months
