Nice video. I started my seeds 4 days ago but a little different. I soaked my seeds in warm water (not hot) and left them for 24 hours then filled pots about the same size you used with potting compost and sprinkled the seeds on top followed by a light covering of compost again. I then cut plastic bottles in half and placed over the top of the pots to create a propogator and put them on my south facing window seal. 4 days later they are all growing like mad.

Hi, I wonder if u can answer a question, please. My Gma got some Mimosa Trees in Germany over 125 years ago. She brought them in her suitcase and gave me a tree about 20 years back.

I'm not aware of any fully hardy Mimosa trees, but Albizia julibrissin is in the same family and looks very similar so its most likely to be an Albizia. Yes they can be grown in the same way as Mimosa pudica. Make sure you select the largest seeds from the tree and then follow the same steps as in my video. You may also need to wear down the seed coat with sand paper as they have a thicker seed coat than pudica. Just sand the seeds down a little before soaking them in hot water.

I live in Virginia in the mountains in the United States. I used to play with a large mimosa plant when I was a little girl in the hot house. And had not seen them sense so I ordered some seeds and I had them under the light for about a month and a half and I thought I was doing something wrong so I gave up I ended up putting it out side on the banister and I got son almost all day because inside does not get a lot of sun or it has to be in a room that's not a lot of fun but so the cats do not get to it. Next thing I noticed I have five plants that have sprouted outside in my pot. So as it grows what do I do come winter because we do get quite a bit of snow quite cold I don't see how I can keep it warm enough or get enough sunlight even under one of those lights for growing herbs and things with I do have what they didn't grow under that. Will they grow an hour winter atmosphere and yes sometimes below freezing. Thank you

@Gardeningat58N

6 жыл бұрын

Yes you should be able to find Perlite or bark based composts in most garden centres or online. The bark compost is usually sold as orchid compost, but check on the packet that it contains bark. As for brands, I've found for perlite and bark they don't tend to differ too much, at least here in the UK anyway. Your best sowing them in spring or early summer. You could probably get away with sowing them now, but you'll find come November they will suffer with the lack of sunlight.

I germinate my tree legume seeds on damp bubble wrap with a little bit of water in the bottom of the container instead of paper towel or toilet paper. This almost eliminates the problem of mould growing on the seeds and the roots don't grow into the bubble wrap like they would with tissue/paper towel sometimes (this was a problem I had before). I have used this method with Moringa oleifera, Virgilia capensis and even with mango seeds, very carefully removed from their seed coats, soaked for 24 hours and then wrapped in scrunched up bubble wrap, on an angle in a takeaway food container, with water reaching the bottom part of the seed. I found that carefully clipping a tiny bit off the "non germ" end of the seed coat of most tree legumes, then soaking in room temperature water for 24 hours was a good way to kickstart germination, better than the hot water method, but you have to be careful to just clip the seed coat without damaging the seed. Also, you can't clip the seed coat of moringa seeds or you'll kill them, either plant them unsoaked or soak them for 24 hours in room temperature water. I hope this helps someone out there. God Bless!

For what I was reading. Depending on the weather you'll have to water more or less. Winter time, Less. Make sure the soil is airy so a good soil mix should be ok. You can use orchid barks, perlite, maybe cactus soil. They love morning direct sun light. If in doubt, always, always, always check the roots and spray with equal part of hydrogen peroxide and water to kill any bacteria. Other than that they do not require any type of special conditions like other plants. Also, I just noticed you wrote this abut 4 years ago but I have already written all this information so I don't feel like deleting it lmao. I hope you were able to figure it out :)

They actually grow like weeds in the wild, I used to see them a lot in Hong Kong. But they grow in the tropics where its regularly over 30C which helps to break their dormancy. In the wild they germinate slowly over several months with some seeds germinating almost straight away and others taking a long time. This ensures that they don't all grow at the same time. But using the hot water treatment helps them to all germinate at the same time.

A spoon of 3 percent H2O2 into 1L of water should do the trick unless you use it for adult plants to avoid mold in the pot, then 3 spoons for the same amount of water is ok - my cayenne peppers, bamboos and ginseng ficus bonsai take that very well since not only it kills mold, but it also provides the roots with extra oxygen.

The seeds must have oxygen to germinate, but I do actually seal mine. I find that there is enough oxygen already in the container for them to germinate and also I open it every week or so to check on them and that allows oxygen in. I find if i don't seal mine it tends to dry out fairly quickly and more mould gets into the container.

It is called " Lajjapati plant" in bengali language.

This thing literally grows in our backyard like grass without "special care". We treat it like the way you guys treat weeds.

Probably the climate where you live. Here in the UK nothing grows without special care coz its dark and cold 80% of the year 😂

No don't soak the water, he said to just moisten it. You don't want too much water when you get the water wet otherwise the plant won't grow.

The shell needs heat from the warm water to open.

You need to do all this? I just planted my seeds in a small pot of soil... and Ta Da... I have a Sensitive Plant.

Probably got lucky with healthy seeds and a good climate. If climate is a bit too harsh any plant needs special care untill it can adapt to what it gets. My cayenne peppers are still growing in a wardrobe under led lights with ventilation since any window or outside is not an option until summer. They would just die out or go into wintering and I dont want either since they are producing flowers and peppers like crazy with what I give them :D

The hot water is not needed, I have just srouted some and just planted them normally, no hot water.

Its only mimosa

its a great medicinal plant , you can know more about it in Ayurveda.

does mimosa tree have different seeds? I mean how big does it get cause I've seen different mimosa seeds like this video : kzread.info/dash/bejne/iJibua2Teai6eag.html

Yes there are many different Mimosa species, and some will grow into large trees, and not all of the Mimosa species will have leaves which are sensitive to touch. The one most people grow is Mimosa pudica as its leaves move the most, it remains small and it has nice small pink flowers.
