Q.Bird of Paradise From Seed
I run a medium-sized greenhouse in Boys Ranch, TX. I grow plants from seed that are used in flower beds across ranch. I like to try something new every year, and this year I’ve purchased Bird of Paradise seed. I have mist benches and have been very successful in propagating unusual plants in the past. I know the seed takes quite a while to germinate, but I would like to know a little more about lighting, moisture, and heat requirements. If you can share any information, it will be greatly appreciated.
