Growing from seeds:
Palm-leaf maple seeds require pre-sowing preparation - stratification. And a nice bonus is that, unlike most maples, the stratification period is quite short - 2-4 weeks.
Therefore, clean and dried palm-leaf maple seeds can be stored in a bag in the refrigerator until February, stratified for 3-4 weeks and sown by March.
Stratification: soak the seeds in water at room temperature for 2 days, change the water 1-2 times a day. Then drain the water, mix the seeds with sand or perlite / vermiculite, pour into a bag, moisten, but do not flood and put in the refrigerator. Temperature is about +5
Once a week or two, take out the seeds and, if necessary, rinse and moisten.
Seedlings appear 2-3 weeks after sowing. Since the tree is small, you should not expect rapid growth from the seedlings. In the first year they grow up to 5-12 cm. But already in the first year of life, in the fall they will have beautiful bright leaves.
