Sowing instructions

1. Choose the right location: Bursera plants prefer sunny locations with well-drained soil. Make sure that the location is protected from strong winds and offers enough space, as some species can develop into large trees.
2. Soil preparation: Loosen the soil thoroughly and remove weeds and large stones. Bursera thrives best in a sandy or loamy soil with good drainage. Add organic matter if necessary to improve the soil structure.
3. Seed procurement: Obtain high-quality Bursera seeds from a trustworthy source. Make sure to choose fresh seeds to ensure good germination.
4. Sowing time: The best times for sowing Bursera seeds are in spring or fall, when the soil temperatures are warm enough. Sow the seeds about 1 to 2 centimetres deep in the prepared soil and keep it evenly moist.
5. Germination and care: Bursera seeds can take several weeks to months to germinate, as the process can vary depending on the species. Keep the seedlings moist and protect them from strong sunlight. Once the seedlings become stronger, you can carefully transplant them to provide enough space for them to grow.

Tips and tricks

• Regular watering: Bursera plants need regular watering during the growing season to stay healthy. Make sure to allow the soil to dry out well between waterings to avoid waterlogging, as this can lead to root rot.
• Protection against frost: Some Bursera species are sensitive to cold temperatures and can be damaged by frost. Make sure that you protect the plants sufficiently during the cold seasons by protecting them from strong temperature fluctuations or placing them in sheltered areas.
• Special care during the dry season: Bursera plants are often adapted to dry conditions and can survive longer periods of drought. Reduce watering during this time and keep the plants dry to prevent the formation of rot.
