Grow Your Own Bonsai Tree – Dawn Redwood Forest
The Dawn Redwood tree was known only as a fossil until the first living specimen was discovered in a Chinese rice paddy in 1946. It was carefully cultivated, and now you can create your own forest of Dawn Redwood Bonsai Trees with this unique Seeds.
Fast-growing, unique species
Believed to be extinct, a living specimen of the Dawn Redwood was discovered by a Chinese forester in the 1940s. These ancient trees, related to the coastal redwoods of California, were selected for this bonsai because of their beauty and fast growth rate.
Additionally, they are one of a handful of deciduous conifer species. This means that the Dawn Redwood’s foliage changes color in the autumn and eventually falls off. However, its pointy leaves more resemble those of traditional “evergreens”.
How can I best ensure successful germination of my seeds?
There are three factors to keep in mind.
One, don’t plant the seed too deep! The seed should be lightly covered with about 1/8″ of soil.
Two, don’t overwater or underwater your seeds. The soil should be damp like a sponge, but do not let the soil dry out between waterings. But if the soil is too soggy, the seed will become moldy and not germinate.
Lastly, temperature is important for seed germination. Soil typically is 5ºF/-15ºC cooler than the surrounding air. Optimum soil temperature for seed germination is around 70ºF/21ºC. If your room temperature is cooler than 75ºF/24ºC, you will need to supplement heat with a simple desk lamp about 8″ from the top of the pot. If your room temperature is warm enough, place pots and seedlings in a location with morning sunlight.
