Palm tree growing tips- How to grow plam trees. » Citrus mitis Jan 1, 2006 10:12 PM (Total replies: 1)

With bottom heat at 80F a fresh seed will take ~3 weeks to sprout and maybe 4-6 years to get large enough to produce fruit.


I would be contacting the PNW palms and subtropicals board about starting them. http://www.cloudforest.com/northwest/

Here you go. These guys are experts and are in your local area. I too am in BC Victoria to be exact.


Ok, I need some expert advice as to exacctly how one goes about properly geminating fresh Camphor seeds.
Please see my other post about what my results have been in the past. NO good!

I am assuming the seeds offered my banana tree are all less than 2 monthsold as they have a poor shelf life! This I do know.


I have delt with a number of smaller seed companys with Camphor tree seed and all seem to be sterilized. I have tried germanation times up to 3.5months.. with no luck. Has anyone tried seeds from here and actually had sucess?

I am starting these seeds in a professional grow chamber. bottom heat regulated to 25c ~80F and 100W worth of CFL @ 6500K. I have tried peat pots but had no luck, so I am going to try rock wool seed starter plugs.
