Audrey Banyan Fig Tree Seeds
The Audrey Banyan Fig (Ficus benghalensis 'Audrey') is a beautiful and increasingly popular indoor plant, admired for its lush, velvety green leaves with prominent, contrasting veins. Unlike its giant outdoor relatives, 'Audrey' maintains a more manageable size, making it a perfect statement piece for interior spaces, bringing a touch of tropical elegance to any room. It's cherished for its attractive foliage and relatively easy care once established.
To prepare Audrey Banyan Fig seeds for planting, no special pre-treatment like scarification or stratification is typically needed. However, ensuring the seeds are fresh is important for good germination rates. If you suspect the seeds are older or have been stored for a while, a short soak in lukewarm water for 12-24 hours can sometimes help rehydrate them and encourage germination.
Sow the seeds on the surface of a well-draining, fine-textured seed-raising mix. Do not cover the seeds with soil, as they require light to germinate. Gently press them onto the surface to ensure good contact with the mix. Keep the soil consistently moist by misting, and consider covering the tray with a clear lid or plastic wrap to maintain high humidity, which is crucial for germination. Place the tray in a warm location with bright, indirect light. Germination can be slow and erratic, taking several weeks to a few months. Once seedlings are large enough to handle, carefully transplant them into individual pots and continue to provide warmth and consistent moisture.
