Hello there!

I joined in trying to find some guidelines about sowing "Wrightia Religiosa" seeds that I have bought from Singapore.
I am from Greece, Athens and the temperature right now is 21-23C min. and 32-33C max.
I have put them right away into free draining and light soil and put the pot into a transparent plastic bag. I have opened some holes on the plastic.

I have read that Malaysian cultivate wrightia and make very good (better than others) bonsai. So, will you please help me with some advice?
Thank you in advance for your kind cooperation!

I think winter at your country can be too cold for young wrightia to survive. If you have wait till spring next year to germinate the seed I can be quite sure they can grow.


Thank you for taking the time to respond, Bonsailelong!
The mean temperature during the winter in Athens is usually about 11C and minimum temperature 0-1C but this does not lasts for many days.
If the seeds do germinate and if I move the small plants during cold months into a sheltered place with ample daylight, do you think that they will survive until spring?

... ... On the other hand why not you try to post to ask at the Ibonsaiclub. There may have somebody living in the same climate as yours whom have successfully grown wrightia from seed and can share their experience.

Good luck.

Hello, Bonsailelong!
Actually I am already a member of IBC and have posted also there. I have been told by one member who is from Malaysia exactly the same things that you have written i.e. "not sure, don't know your climate". That's why I turned to a Malaysian forum to ask smile.gif
Anyway, thank you once again!
