My Baby BRT'S

[Carol 83]

I'm going to use this thread to keep track of my little guys. First up, my miracle seedlings from seeds so kindly sent to me by @Clicio that spent two years wandering around the world before they made their way to me.

Next up, my first successful BRT cuttings. Hopefully they'll keep chugging along. I'll have to be bringing them in pretty soon, so we'll see how that goes.

I am SOOOO HAPPY that they have sprouted! Very very very happy indeed!
Brazilians are tough!

Well, if @leatherback can keep them growing in northern Germany winters, so will you!

Jay! More raintrees!

Me too, thanks again! I still have some seeds left I am saving for when I'm bored this winter.

Wheee more rain trees and…TWO YEARS?! Was that true to word snail mail?

Let´s put it this way: I have posted them from Brazil in the first year of Covid; the envelope was tiny; mail speed was reduced because of the lockdown; and the same was happening in the USA.
But we (me and @Carol 83 ) had lost all hope when they eventually arrived at her door!

Not sure if they ship to New Zealand?

I would be happy to send you a few but the germination rate has been rather low, perhaps my fault, I don't know.

 

[Pixar]

I'll send you a PM

I think I had also low germination. 5 plants out of a packet of seeds.

I have a. BRT I love it find it easy to take care of and interesting tree. I decided to try rooting cuttings this year it took awhile for them to root but now I have 4 new trees to try new styles on. Glad your seeds took

Last year I have sowed them later into the spring, much warmer weather. The germination rate was much better, and in the end I am giving them away to friends as I have too many seedlings right now.

That makes me feel a little better. I'm just happy to have a few sprout and I still have some seeds left.
