Sow the seeds 8-10mm deep in a well-draining compost mix - ideally 50/50 sieved compost and vermiculite. The first seeds should germinate in 10-20 days but the stragglers can take up to 8 weeks.Once large enough to prick out, transfer to individual deep pots or root trainers as this tree has a deep tap root.Harden off in early spring and plant out after all danger of frost has passed.Prefers a free-draining soil in full sun.
