Yunnan You Shan Seeds offer an opportunity to cultivate a rare and elegant conifer, Keteleeria evelyniana, in UK gardens. This tree, native to Southeast Asia, is known for its pyramidal shape and lush, dark green foliage, making it a striking addition to any landscape. The seeds are the beginning of a journey to grow a tree that thrives in a range of soil types, preferring well-drained, acidic to neutral soils. It’s particularly suited for large gardens or parks, where its full beauty and stature can be appreciated.
The Yunnan You Shan is also noted for its tolerance to air pollution, making it a viable option for urban environments. Its adaptability to different climates, coupled with its moderate growth rate, makes it a favourable choice for UK gardeners.
Natural Germination: Keteleeria evelyniana seeds benefit from cold stratification to break dormancy. Sowing them in autumn, letting them experience the winter chill, aids natural germination in spring.
Artificial Stratification: For controlled germination, soak in water, let stand in water for 24 hours, then mix the seeds with moist substrate and refrigerate for 30 days. This simulates winter conditions, preparing the seeds for successful spring planting.
