Product description
The blue-green, turquoise colour of the flowers looks extraordinary. They grow in clusters of sometimes as many as 100 flowers, with the length of a flower cluster reaching 3 metres in the rainforest. The beak-like shape makes them accessible to bats that come to drink the nectar, pollinating the flowers in the process. After pollination, the flowers are followed by oval-shaped fruits containing up to 12 large, angular seeds.The jade flower is native to the rainforest in northern Philippines. Unfortunately, due to logging, natural populations have largely disappeared, but in botanical gardens, for example, the plant can be found with some regularity. It is a climbing plant that can grow to a height of 20 metres in the rainforest. The plant likes a sunny location, so a heated conservatory or greenhouse would be ideal. But the species also does quite well as a houseplant, where you can have it climbing along a large window, for example. Provide a nutrient-rich, well-drained soil and water the plant regularly.
Sowing description: The large seed has already germinated and can be planted immediately after receipt in a well-drained soil with organic material. 25-30grC would be the optimum temperature for the first few weeks.

Thank you onszaden.
2 de zaad gekocht,heeft even op zich laten wachten maar is aan het groeien. Het eerste zaad staat 3 m hoog . Zeer tevreden van de kwaliteit.
Zaad aangekomen op maandag, maandagavond gezaaid en dinsdag avond stond het plantje al 5 cm boven, nu is het even wat rustiger, is waarschijnlijk meer wortels aan het maken maar gaat super goed.
Afwachten hoe hij het nu verder doet.
Ben in ieder geval zeer tevreden van het resultaat e de service.
Seed arrived in excellent condition, I recommend buying from them
Seriously come on!! I saw this plant in a botanical garden and fell in love. I was Stunned to find them here. When I got the seed it had already germinated. A month under a led lamp and it’s taken off! Literally I have no idea how I am going to handle this speed of growth.
5 Stars all the way this business is amazing!
