I purchased my oleander from a retailer. I moved (during growing season) it to a larger pot and used creek sand and it is doing wonderful in the creek sand. Big Blooms all over it.
I have a lot of these and People in Arizona freak out about how they will kill everything in sight....I'm here cause I noticed all the seed pods thank you I'm going to try this way and propagating!!
Hey, thank you for sharing this video. This plant is everywhere in Egypt 🇪🇬. I’ve noticed something in the video, you picked up the seeds in december 2022 and the progress took till November, we’re still in February 2023! Thank you again.
Great video! Question. How did you make the peat pods? And when you transferred them to the red cups.....what kind of soil did you use or did you put the whole peat pod in the cup with soil?
told you i would bring you some fig plants to Cary, but none lived. Can still bring you some newer cuttings in tree pots if you'd like. BROWN TURKEY CHICAGO HARDY BEERS BLACK OLYMPIAN Let me know
@@ncgardeningandcookingadventurewill still be going to Cary about every 3 months. If you can leave an email address, we should be able to meet this year. So far better results with cuttings this year. Have not been logged in for a while so could not post
How can I speed up germination? I have the seeds in a covered tray trying g to promote germination - however my seeds are not covered completely. Is this necessary?
isit fine for the lower leave to turn yellow and drop of during the early stage? And also do you need to prune off the top part of the young plant to make it grow side way?
Yes it’s perfectly fine for the older leaves to yellow and drop. Even if you don’t prune the top, it will still send side shoots from the base of the main stem.
Hi Lilli, I was scratching the coco peat which is pretty spongy in texture. People belittle others for various reasons and I am surprised to know you found something in a gardening video to belittle me. Sending you some peace and love ❤️
I used regular 50/50 mix from my local landscaping store ( 50% garden soil and 50% compost) . I mix some peat moss to it to loosen the soil and some garden lime to neutralise the ph .
What I meant to say is when you buy soil from a local landscaping company, they have something called 50/50 mix which is a combination of 50 percent soil and 50 percent compost. You need not add compost if you don’t have it. Just pot up in whatever regular soil you have and give miracle Gro fertilizer mixed with water once a month for good growth.
Despite the trouble and hard work with so many process and equipment, i notice the seedling are not growing too fast. 4th month and only still at seedling stage with few leaves. Only after 6 months more leaves appear. Did you make those rounded soil for seedling?
Yup you are right about slow growth. It’s mainly growing slow because I started seeds in January and these oleander needs hot and humid summers to grow fast. How much ever we try, we can’t provide what nature provides. When I tried this, I had least hope that these would germinate but to my surprise the seeds germinated and thus the whole process began. Anyways I am really happy with the results and I absolutely enjoyed the growing phase thoroughly.
Yes I think coco peat works better than soil in germinating tiny seeds like this. I have tried to germinate in soil before and not a single seed germinated.

My pods with seeds inside take months and months to go brown!! 😮

Wow thanks for pointing out. It’s December 2021 not 2022. I made a mistake 😜
@@ncgardeningandcookingadventure no worries 😁
What is the name of the plant in Egypt 🇪🇬

I have oleanders I wanted to propagate but this is painfully slow. I think I will do propagation by cutting.
Gorgeous!
excellent information - thank you. I found seeds on my 2 trees and this will help me grow some seedlings. I also love the music - what is it?

What happen to these plant now? Did you prune them and starts flowering?
Oh wow Super cool
Thank you
Beautiful video
Thank you so much.

The seeds should get some moisture to germinate. If they stay dry, I don’t think they would germinate ever. At least spray some water on the seeds .

The lady is not worried about ruining her nails 😂 she’s scratching the soil like a cat on a post

Where did you got the seeds?
He picked them from a plant.
why is your red oleander seed become pink oleander plant in the end?
Maybe that’s the original colour of the plant before they do genetic modification.
What type of pot mixing did you use in those red cup?
I used regular 50/50 mix from my local landscaping store ( 50% garden soil and 50% compost) . I mix some peat moss to it to loosen the soil and some garden lime to neutralise the ph .
Is compost neccessary actually?

@@ncgardeningandcookingadventure oh i misunderstand it... btw do you have video of how your oleander look like now?
No worries! I will post an updated video on Oleander plants.

@@ncgardeningandcookingadventure can you really germinate seed with only coco peat alone are very effective compare to using normal soil for this?
Yes I think coco peat works better than soil in germinating tiny seeds like this. I have tried to germinate in soil before and not a single seed germinated.
@@ncgardeningandcookingadventure Did you water the coco peat within the 5 days?
No I didn’t water .
