tree project

Hiroshi I just send photos my greenhouse coach suggest me to gently place away the sprouts one from each other, so their roots do not get entangled I do so very gently, and they seem to like it very much is amazing, all the little leaves that are flourishing, also how these sprouts are so green bright at the sunlight  kind Alberto

Alberto, I will get back to you once I send the pic to Dr Horiguchi and see what he says. Persimmon and ginkgo look kind of different from this pic. Best, Hiroshi Sunairi sunairi.wordpress.com 砂入さん こちらこそご無沙汰しています。 お送り頂いた写真を拝見しました。 エノキ、イチョウ、カキに相当する 葉ではないように思います。 日本ではみかけない樹木のようです。 気候の関係で形が変わるとしたらエノキ に近いです。 年末に帰られるとのこと種は準備します。 堀口　力 Alberto, Dr thought also the same thing. They are neither Persimmon or Ginkgo. He thinks it also doesn’t look like Chinese Hackberry and I agree with him as I have grown it and it had large leaves,  https://images.app. goo.gl/ncY8ZYnVahALfhW99 However, he thinks that maybe since Argentina has different weather, hackberry may have transformed themselves. He has never seen this kind of tree in.Japan. Let’s see more pictures when it grows more. Best, Hiroshi Sunairi sunairi.wordpress.com

Dear Hiroshi sprouts keep growing , so we will keep it together,  and we really think we have to keep it this way  until we plant the little tree on earth next year kind Alberto Shin Ai Naru Hiroshi,  I think the tree sprouts are from seeds of these type of  tree, there were seeds in your envelope the leave is long , not as the gingko leave that  opens in a square shape I have a look at samples of leaves of Chinese hackberry ( scientific name : celtis sinensis ) and they look quite alike  They are growing beautifully Kirei desu ne!! kind alberto

Hi Sunairi SAN I am very happy to report that we have three seeds happily growing in the pot. I think I will leave them together until is time to transfer them to a bigger pot. Today I will make consultation with my greenhouse supplier,  he is a very kind man that knows a lot about seeds and little sprouts like these 3 Since you send ( very generously ) a lot of seeds, I am not sure to whose species these 3 seeds belong, this is also something I like to consult with greenhouse man. But, since the the seeds have at first place two little leaves gingko alike, I think they are gingko. If everything goes ok, this three gingko will be planted together next 2020 :=)  will keep reporting !! kind

Dear Sunairi friend sorry not to report before on the seeds, but they stay dormant , due to winter time now in Buenos Aires is springtime and we see that there are three sprouts blossoming  we think they are seeds from Chinese hackberry, we hope they keep going, will report you each week now :) KIND ALBERTO

Dear Hiroshi comments on improvement of seeds 1) the seed of Chinese hackberry that started to sprout inside the envelope, keeps going onwards 2) and now, one of the seeds of persimmon has produced a root and is growing also :) I will consult today with my greenhouse advisor, since I think is already time to put in earth this persimmon seed, the root is very large, white , and is changing to green at the top, so I think soon will start to make photos and will be better for the seed to be in earth  kind alberto

Dear Hiroshi one of the Chinese hackberry that already was with root inside the plastic bag, has open their first leave :) the other seeds of this specie are at the same earth pot, still not showing leaves, but we are hoping for the best and the two gingko seeds and two persimmon seeds are at the germinators, no news still kind Alberto Gesualdi 

Dear Hiroshi dachi Today it seems that we will receive the Hibaku Jyumoku seeds :)  fedex report of tracking says they are on the fedex van to take it to our premises :) We will report improvement on growing of seeds and photos as soon as we see the sprouts. kind alberto

Graciela Cassel - Chinese hackberry sprouted

the persimmon, the ginkgo, and one of the hackberry seeds successfully germinated and are now small seedlings.  Thank you Hiroshi, I love my trees. Briggs Clinco

Persimmon Place the persimmon seeds in a plastic sandwich bag or glass jar with an equal amount of moist sand or peat. Store the bag or jar in the refrigerator for three months. This cold-treatment is known as stratification and breaks the seed's dormancy, which can inhibit germination. Start it late in the fall or early in the winter, about five months before the last spring frost. Throughout the three months, periodically check the medium, and spray it with a water-filled bottle so it stays moist the entire time. Put peat pellets in a tray or cake pan that's filled with 1 inch of water and allow the pellets to soak up the moisture and expand. Discard any water that's left over, and then press one persimmon seed in each pellet to a depth of 1 inch. Place the tray in a clear, plastic bag to create a humid environment. The seeds germinate in two to three weeks in dark or light conditions in a temperature range of 68 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove th...
