To stratify or not to stratify
Hi all,
I'm currently growing some vampire palms from seed. They're currently having a long soak, which is supposed to be followed by a long spell in the fridge, however two of the seeds are already putting roots out. Is it OK to plant those two, and just stratify the rest? TIA Nick |

To stratify or not to stratify
I don't know for vampire palms specifically and there was nothing I could
find quickly on the web, but some seeds send out roots easily but then still need the chill to get the shoots to break as well. Try planting one of the two rooted seeds into a very sandy mixture and put the pot in the fridge along with the other seeds. Try the other somewhere warm. One of them is bound to take off.
