Trachycarpus fortunei - SeedsWindmill Palm

Sow seeds in spring after filing or nicking the hard seed coat to allow water to penetrate. Soak the seeds in warm water for 1-3 days, until they have swollen, changing the water each day. Sow into modules in good quality, gritty compost. Water and place in a plastic bag or propagator to retain humidity. Keep in a warm, light place between 15-20C. Seeds will germinate in around two months. Remove the seedlings from the bag/propagator once they have germinated. When larger, pot on into 9cm pots and allow to grow on before planting out in a well-drained, sheltered position in full sun or partial shade.
