Description

The listing, Vitex / Chaste Tree--50 Fresh Seeds has ended.

Vitex Negundo, or Chaste tree, is a heat and drought tolerant plant that will provide pollen and nectar for honeybees all thru the Summer and into Autumn. They also will be a beautiful flowering small tree for you, producing many, many light blue flower spikes in the Summer till frost
They will spread out easily by seed, making an eventual grove if you care for one....Included in the pack is over 50 seeds. They are from near my apiary, so I know that they are fertile..Germination takes 14-18 days. Plant early indoors for early setout in the Spring. Large shrubs will reach 8-12 feet easily, with older trees reaching to 20 feet They cannot live outside in Winters above zone 5, and further north they will require potting to be able to be moved insde during cold snaps , but they do well in the heat and drought of Texas
Soak seeds overnight before planting anout 1/4" deep.

Any tips for starting these seeds? I won a previous garden from you and tried winter sowing (in Tx) and not a single seed sprouted. Are these seeds old?

They were pulled last Fall...It is best to soak the seeds overnight before planting them about 1/4" deep....Keep ground moist until they sprout, then you would water as needed like any other seedling.
Best of luck this time. I think you will do all right.
Regards,
Rick
