Natural Germination: Persian Silk Tree seeds benefit from natural stratification if left outdoors during winter. The cold, moist conditions help break the seed’s dormancy and prepare it for spring germination.
Artificial Stratification: For artificial stratification, soak the seeds in boiling water for 24 hours. After soaking, mix them with moist sand and refrigerate for 1-3 months at 1-5°C. Sow the stratified seeds in well-draining soil, ensuring they are lightly covered. Keep the soil consistently moist and maintain a temperature of around 20°C for optimal germination, which typically occurs within 1-2 weeks.
This dual approach to germination suits both natural and controlled environments, setting the stage for the growth of beautiful Persian Silk Trees in your garden.
