I'm attempting to germinate some Texas Mountain Laurel seeds. I've been collecting them ever since I "discovered" the plant last year. From what I've read, it's not so easy to get these things to sprout! Especially since all I have right now are hard, year old + seeds.

I'm going to try a few different methods: scarification, exposing them to cold, etc but tomorrow I plan to take a few cuttings and grab some fresh seeds because apparently you can get them to grow when they fresh as well, I guess?

If you haven't smelled one of these trees, I highly recommend it! The butterflies and bees agree. #gronostr #grownostr #trees
