Soak seeds in water for 24 hours before planting. Use a well-draining seed-starting mix, barely cover seeds with soil, and keep moist but not waterlogged. Germination can be slow and uneven, often taking several months. Provide bright light and maintain a temperature around 65-70°F (18-21°C). Once seedlings have several true leaves, transplant into larger pots. Harden off before planting outdoors in a sunny location with well-drained soil. Water regularly during the first year to establish a deep root system. Prune as needed to shape the tree and remove dead or crossing branches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e25 Crimson Cascade Crabapple seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795566461238,"sku":"FOLIA2-545","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7169846065_jzgh.jpg?v=1792671652","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/25-crimson-cascade-crabapple-seeds-deep-pink-blossoms-red-fall-fruit","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
