I recently bought some seeds of: Heart Leaved Paperbark - Melaleuca cordata - Heart Leaf Honey Myrtle (they are known by many different names). I am wondering what is the best method to germinate them and how long it would take?
I would think Melaleuca seeds would be sown just like any others, except I found this while googling and the very first Melaleuca listed says do not cover the seeds with soil: http://www.rareplants.de/shop/prodtype.asp?strParents=68&CAT... I think I'd try doing some with just a sprinkling of fine soil over top and some with no coverage to see what happens. As for germination, it probably depends on warmth, light, moisture etc.
So glad to hear some have germinated for you! I will keep good thoughts that they all do well and you will soon have nice healthy, fat beautiful plants!
