Description
20 Common Lilac Purple Flower Tree Seeds (Syringa vulgaris) The Common Purple Lilac is Sometimes Referred to as the “Queen of Shrubs.” That’s Not Only Because they are Extremely Beautiful, but Also Because they Have Many Highly Desirable Properties for Gardeners. These are Plants that are Cold Hardy, Highly Fragrant, and Easy to Care for. The Height of the Lilac is Another Very Appealing Quality, Which Means that this Flower can Look Equally Great at Either the Front or the Back of a Flower Bed. But it’s the Scent that Makes it Really Stand Out – Filling Your Space with a Really Sweet Aroma, Which Also Attracts Butterflies & Hummingbirds. Easily grown in average, medium moisture, well-drained soil in full sun. Tolerates light shade, but best bloom is in full sun. Intolerant of full shade. Prefers moist, fertile, organically rich, slightly acidic to slightly alkaline soils with good drainage. Avoid soggy soils. Needs good air circulation. Prune as needed immediately after flowering. To the extent practicable, promptly remove faded flower panicles before seed set. Best grown in climates with cool summers and cold winters. Not recommended for planting in hot and humid Zones 8 and up where chilling requirements are difficult to meet leading to unreliable blooming. Zones 3-7 Lilac Germination: 1) Let seeds soak in water for 24 hours. 2) Stratify seeds by placing them in zip lock bag of "moist" peat moss or vermiculite. Place them in the fridge for 90 days. Cut a few tiny holes in the bag for air circulation & periodically check them to be sure they are staying moist, never drying out. "Not wet, just Moist" A spray bottle works best to lightly mist them. 3) Plant seeds 1/4" deep in a well mixed & well draining seed starting mix, keeping them no less than 65 degrees F. 4) Germination will occur between 14-45 days. If some sprout early, don't toss out the rest as they're still good and just need more time. Germinación de las lilas: 1) Deje las semillas en remojo en agua durante 24 horas. 2) Estratifique las semillas colocándolas en una bolsa con cierre hermético llena de turba o vermiculita "húmeda". Colóquelas en el refrigerador durante 90 días. Haga unos pequeños agujeros en la bolsa para que circule el aire y revíselas periódicamente para asegurarse de que se mantengan húmedas y que nunca se sequen. "No mojadas, solo húmedas". Una botella rociadora funciona mejor para rociarlas ligeramente. 3) Plante las semillas a 1/4" de profundidad en una mezcla para semillas bien mezclada y con buen drenaje, manteniéndolas a no menos de 65 grados F. 4) La germinación ocurrirá entre 14 y 45 días. Si algunas brotan antes, no deseche el resto, ya que todavía están en buen estado y solo necesitan más tiempo.
