Callistemon rigidus
cylinder cleaner seeds
?Callistemon rigidus, the cylinder brush is a red flowering plant with dainty, green to bronze-colored leaves. The cylinder cleaner loves a sunny location, ideally with a well-drained soil that never dries up. Final height about 2.50 m. Callistemon rigidus is hardy to at least -17 degrees, so it can be kept in the garden or as a container plant. The cylinder cleaner is also well suited as bonsai.
?For sowing,swell in water and place in a plastic pot.
Spread some seeds on the peat pot and cover thinly with the sowing substrate (about 2 mm).
Then put the plastic pot in a zip-lock bag - with a pot size of 6 cm we recommend a zip-lock bag of the size 120 x 170 mm. Put enough tap water in the zip-lock bag with a few drops of universal fertilizer so that a few millimeters of water remain after the substrate has been absorbed.
Location: on the windowsill or in a miniature greenhouse partially shaded, during the day the temperatures should be around 24 - 28 C, at night slightly lower at 20 - 24 C.
price is for 100 seeds
