Sow seeds in a well-draining seed-starting mix, barely covering them with soil. Keep the medium moist but not waterlogged and maintain a temperature around 70°F (21°C). Germination can be slow and uneven, taking several weeks to months. Once seedlings have developed a few true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and grow them on in a sheltered spot. Gradually acclimate young trees to outdoor conditions before planting in their permanent location in full sun and well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a deep root system.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e10 seeds of \u003cem\u003eCercis siliquastrum\u003c\/em\u003e (Judas Tree).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67824762323254,"sku":"FOLIA2-1189","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.6557490467_gxwn.jpg?v=1793004510","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/10-judas-tree-seeds-cercis-siliquastrum-pink-spring-blossoms-ornamental-deciduous-tree","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
