Place seeds in a moist medium such as peat moss or sand, and refrigerate for 60-90 days before sowing. After stratification, sow seeds about 1\/4 inch deep in a well-draining seed-starting mix. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, and provide bright, indirect light. Germination can be slow and uneven, so patience is key.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce seedlings have developed several sets of true leaves, transplant them into individual pots and gradually acclimate them to outdoor conditions. Choose a planting site with well-drained soil and adequate sunlight. Water regularly during the first few years to help establish a deep root system. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds. With proper care, your Painted Maple will grow into a beautiful ornamental tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e10 Painted Maple seeds (Acer mono).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67727562277174,"sku":"BOTAN4-441","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7769037069_mcnv.jpg?v=1791980927","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/painted-maple-seeds-10-acer-mono-ornamental-deciduous-tree","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
