5 King Sago Palm Seeds (Cycas Revoluta) Rare Tropical Prehistoric Cycad Hardy-8

Description: 5 King Sago Palm Seeds (Cycas Revoluta) King Sago Palm is a Tropical and Sub-Tropical Showy Evergreen Member of an Ancient Plant Family known as Cycadaceae, Dating back 200 Million Years Ago. Sago Palm is an Easy Houseplant to Maintain. They are Elegant Grown in Containers or Urns for Use on Patios, Sunrooms, or Entrances to Homes. They are Beautiful Evergreens for use in Subtropical or Tropical Home Landscapes as Borders, Accents, Specimens, or in Rock Gardens. Sago palm requires very little maintenance and prefers bright, but indirect sun. Harsh sunlight can damage the foliage. If the plant is grown indoors, filtered sunlight for 4-6 hours per day is recommended. The soil should be moist and well-drained. They are intolerant to overwatering or poor drainage. They are drought tolerant when established. Sandy, loamy soils with a pH acid to neutral are recommended. They can tolerate brief periods of cold, but frost will damage the foliage. The Sago Plant will not survive if the temperature drops below 15 degrees Fahrenheit. "Please be aware while Sago plants are not attractive to dogs and cats, Sago plants, Especially seeds are very toxic and should be handled with gloves"Zones 8-11Sago Germination:1) Cut a few shallow nicks into seed shells, being sure not to go too deep. (The seeds that chipmunks have gnawed into will not require this. By the chipmunks eating into the flesh, they have already naturally scarified those seeds.)2) Soak seeds for 3 days, changing water daily.3) Mix 20% perlite and 10% sand into a well mixed and well draining potting soil.4) Lay seeds flat on their sides, covering only half of the seed while leaving the rest exposed.5) Use a heated propagator to keep soil temperatures between 80-85 degrees.6) Use a humidity dome or small piece of plastic on top to help keep humidity levels high.7) Keep slightly moist, never overly wet.8) As with most tropical seeds, patience is needed as germination is erratic and can take anywhere from 6 months to a year. Do not toss out any that do not germinate early as they're still good and just need more time.Germinación de semillas de sagú:1) Haz unos cortes superficiales en las cáscaras de las semillas, asegurándote de no profundizar demasiado.(Las semillas que las ardillas han roído no necesitarán esto. Al comer la pulpa, las ardillas ya han escarificado naturalmente esas semillas).2) Remoja las semillas durante 3 días, cambiando el agua a diario.3) Mezcla un 20 % de perlita y un 10 % de arena en una tierra para macetas bien mezclada y con buen drenaje.4) Coloca las semillas de lado, cubriendo solo la mitad de la semilla y dejando el resto expuesto.5) Usa un propagador calentado para mantener la temperatura del suelo entre 80 y 85 grados.6) Usa una cúpula de humedad o un pequeño trozo de plástico en la parte superior para ayudar a mantener altos los niveles de humedad.7) Mantén la tierra ligeramente húmeda, nunca demasiado mojada.8) Como con la mayoría de las semillas tropicales, se necesita paciencia, ya que la germinación es errática y puede tardar entre 6 meses y un año. No deseches ninguna que no germine pronto, ya que aún está buena y solo necesita más tiempo.
