Rainbow Eucalyptus Tree Seeds - 50 Seeds - Stunning Colored Bark - Eucalyptus deglupta

I didn't do anything special like the commenters said. Just tossed them all into a few planter cups. And one came up! Just one, and its now about a foot tall and in the ground, so it was worth the purchase. EDIT: Six months later, all the rest of the seeds sprouted. They will germinate when they are ready too.

Seeds NEVER sprouted and I can grown anything

Almost all of mine popped, both the germinated ones and the ones straight planted-- but the other reviewers are right, heating pad made them pop in both situations, no activity until heat was applied, so I get why some had mixed results, I imagine there would be some result with longer time and no heat but with heat it was about a week or so, maybe a bit longer. That being said the ones I transplanted from germination only a couple lived to seedling whereas the ones straight up from soil survived better (maybe leave them in the towel a bit longer before moving) though separating and potting the seedlings from the soil was easy enough and the seedlings are sturdy. (on both scenarios they got at least 24 hours in the fridge, the germinated ones on a towel and the straight planted ones just sat in a tray with no soak) On the soil planting I put 3 per planting and out of 8 pots 3 of them had more than one and they all had one minimum, and in the paper towel method like 14 out of 17 sprouted, though like I said only a few of the paper towel germinations came up after soiling, I think I moved them too quickly so, let them get a bit bigger in the towel maybe for better success. Overall these sprouted really well and are starting well, they are definitely eucalyptus and I am hoping they are in fact the advertised Rainbow variety, CZ Grain seems to be the most reputable person to get it from on amazon, I will be watching them grow in anticipation of the reddish stems and edges that I believe are more associated with the rainbow kind. EDIT: So, they are now exhibiting the red features that confirm it is the correct Rainbow Eucalyptus species! Very pretty! So, if you got your seed pack from czgrain like me than you are probably good-to-go!

It was a wasted of money for me. Not one seed grew. I did everything the way it was supposed to be done. Nothing ever came up. The seeds are so tiny, I’m not sure they’re even seeds. Don’t waste your money.

For the price and how tiny they are, I thought I might get more. Unfortunately, I tried the paper towel trick, and still haven't seen any results. :(

After reading so many bad reviews about the seeds never germinating, I was reluctant to purchase the seeds. After doing a little research I found that the seeds are extremely difficult for some people to get started because the lighting and temperatures aren’t right. Since the seeds didn’t cost much I figured I’d give it a shot. I ordered the grow lights and enclosure you see in the photo and kept the lights on for 12-18 hours per day over night. The seeds have been kept on my covered back deck. They were planted on Father’s Day and they germinated in less than a week! I ordered a 50 pack and I counted today (about 3 weeks after planting) and counted at least 175 germinated trees coming in. Definitely better than what I was expecting after reading the reviews.. I highly recommend these seeds and the company providing them, but also highly recommend using a grow light kit (about $40)..

These seeds are duds! After reading reviews I saw a lot of people had bad results, but many had great results. I have a farm nursery and sprout thousands of seeds a year from hundreds of different plants and trees, so I figured I'd get it right. I used professional seed starting mix, a seed starting tray with humidity dome, a heat mat with temperature probe to ensure consistent 90 degrees for germination. Carefully placed one seed in each of 50 cells and misted twice daily. After 5 weeks, not a single sprout. I came back to the listing and looked at reviews. I noticed that there was not one single review with success in the past 12 months. I also looked at reviews from other sellers on amazon with seeds from the same source "CZ grain" and I see the same thing there. They must have a large stock of old seeds. In retrospect, I guess it's dumb to by tropical plant seeds from a source in in mid-west USA. Of course these sellers are not sourcing their seeds directly. Better off buying these types of seeds directly from a grower in a tropical or subtropical region.

I’m not sure if my luck was just poor, but I’ve tried nearly the entire bag of seed I’ve purchased and I’ve only had two successful germination events with a handful of seedlings. None of which could be characterised as anything like rainbow eucalyptus, and despite being in south south us, each seedling died in summer, leaves scorched in the sun turning brown and black in the weather that’s supposedly fantastic for eucalyptus. Ran some photos by my local nurseries and they were convinced I was growing artillery plant.
