These seeds were purchased at the beginning of August and were immediately sowed. Five were sowed in potting soil with slight acidity (as opposed to a seeding mixture) and the other five were sowed in cotton balls. The black seeds look like round beans approximately 6-7mm in diameter.

In 10 days (Aug 2 - Aug 12) I noticed that all of the seeds in the cotton balls had already started germinating which was surprising because the note that was included with the seeds indicated "MAY BE SLOW GERMINATING". I checked the ones in soil and all but one germinated. (That was probably my fault because I accidentally damaged the seed a week prior when I noticed that the husk was molding.) So of the ten seeds I received nine germinated, which is a surprising rate. I'm not an expert on Japanese Pagoda propagation so this may, in fact, be the normal success rate.

The husks of the seeds in the soil all developed mold while none developed in the cotton balls. The mold did... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars So far so good, August 29, 2011

9/12 seeds germinated in first 2 weeks when seeded in Jiffy 5042 Windowsill Greenhouse 24-Plant Starter Kit With J7. I never expect a 100% germination rate, and these seeds are far more responsive than I am accustomed to. There's a certain satisfaction one derives from growing their own bonzai, and I was hoping for one or 2 trees. Looks like I'll have some to give as gifts in a couple years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Saitisfied, April 19, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Japanese Pagoda Tree 10 Seeds - Sophora - Bonsai
I planted 7 seeds in seeds starter soil and 3 in a wet paper towel in a plastic baggie (open). I nic'd half of the seeds shells before planting. The ones with the nic sprouted first and the first to germinate was the nic'd seed in the paper towel. It is now day 17 and 6 of the 10 seeds have sprouted and 4 of those are between 3 and 4 inches tall! I wish there was a link so I could post a pic!
