Uses
Excellent grown in containers indoors or outdoors during warm weather. Smaller plants look fantastic displayed on an individual plant stand where the heavy clusters of flowers can drape freely.
Planting Instructions:
The Medinilla seeds will first need to be removed from any remaining outer seed husk – soaking in water can help with this.
Next, need to select seed starting containers and growing mix. Since plants will do best in soil that is slightly acidic, avoid adding any lime. Fill the containers with the seed starting mix and water it well. Soil should not be soggy, however, it will be imperative to maintain adequate moisture while germinating Medinilla seeds.
Place the container in a warm location.
Check daily to ensure that the surface of the soil has not dried. Many growers may consider the use of a humidity dome to maintain better control over the seed starting tray.
Medinilla seed propagation will require patience, as it can take several weeks for germination to occur. The location of the tray should receive amply bright (indirect) sunlight. After about 12 weeks, most of the Medinilla seed should have germinated. Keep the seedlings well watered until several sets of true leaves have developed on the plants.
Once the seedlings have gained sufficient size, they can be transplanted into larger individual containers or pots.
