Tips:

  • To improve the germination of the seeds, place them in the refrigerator for a week and soak them in room temperature water overnight before sowing.
  • After sowing, cover the seed pot with cling film with a few holes poked in it.
  • Remove the cling film every 2 to 3 days for about 2 hours to prevent mould.
  • Place the seed pot in a bright place at a temperature of 20 to 25°C.
  • Keep the potting soil moist but not wet.
  • This tree needs a warm location.
  • If you grow the tree in a pot, fertilise it monthly with fertiliser for potted plants.
  • When grown in a pot, the tree should be kept at a temperature between 8 and 15°C indoors over winter. Water moderately.
  • Protect trees planted outdoors from frost in the first few winter seasons.
  • Regular cutting back is not necessary.
  • The flowers have a sweet and sour taste and are used as edible garnish in Asian and southern European cuisine.
