Red-Bud Mallee ( Eucalyptus pachyphylla) 50 Seeds
 
Cultivating Red-Bud Mallee from seed can be a rewarding experience, leading to the establishment of this distinctive native in your garden or land. These seeds offer the opportunity to grow a unique mallee, recognized for its prominent red flower buds, thick leaves, and multi-stemmed growth habit, providing both visual interest and an intriguing form.
 
For optimal germination, sow seeds in a well-draining seed-raising mix. A mix of 70% native potting mix and 30% coarse sand or perlite works well. Lightly cover the seeds with a thin layer of the mix or fine sand, as they require some light for germination. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. A warm location with good indirect light is ideal. Germination can be erratic, so patience is key.
 
Once seedlings are large enough to handle, carefully transplant them into individual pots, taking care not to disturb the roots. Continue to provide them with ample sunlight and consistent moisture. As they grow, gradually acclimatize them to outdoor conditions before planting them in their final position. Choose a site with good drainage and full sun. While young, ensure they are protected from strong winds and frost. Regular watering is important during their establishment phase.
