Continuing my saga of growing rare trees; I’ve successfully cultivated one of the most difficult tropical tree species (that I know of) to germinate!


I swear, Gibberellic acid is like a cheat code in a video game. I got 20 Andaman Padauk (Pterocarpus dalbergoides) seeds recently, and I got 8 of them to germinate!!! This species, along with other commercially valuable members of the genus Pterocarpus, is notoriously recalcitrant. On average the germination rate of this species in the wild is 2-13 percent.
