Product Description

Jujube

Ziziphus Jujuba

Packet contents: 25 seeds

The packaging of this product is fully compostable, so once you have finished with it, it can be added to the compost heap, so nothing goes to landfill.

This is a large deciduous flowering shrub or a small tree, which will develop lovely glossy foliage and edible fruit known as jujube or Chinese date. The shrub is frost tolerant, so it will grow well in colder climate as long as it is positioned in a sunny and sheltered area of the garden.

Sowing: Growing Jujube from seed is relatively easy. Place the seeds in well-drained, fine compost, cover with some compost and keep moist at regular temperature of 20°C to 25°C. The seeds should germinate between 3 to 5 weeks, but sometimes may take longer. Once the first true leaves have developed, pot on the seedlings in larger containers.

Tip: To speed up the germination and soften the hard coating of the seed, prior to sowing, the seeds can be soaked in tepid water for 24 to 48 hours. Gentle scarification is also recommended to help with germination.

EXCELLENT VALUE FOR MONEY!
