2. Seedling cultivation methods for Terminalia

1. Collecting seeds

Terminalia trees are propagated by seed. They flower in May-June, and the fruit ripens in September. When ripe, the fruit skin changes from green to yellow, and after ripening it falls to the ground. Seeds can be collected by picking them up from the ground, or by knocking them down and gathering them, and they can be transported after drying in the air. The collected fruit needs no special treatment; it can be sown with the fruit or stored in moist sand. The 1000-seed weight is 5400 grams.

2. Sowing and raising seedlings

Before sowing, soak the fruit in water for 1-2 days so the outer fruit skin absorbs enough water, then sow densely in a sand bed and keep the sand bed moist. One month after sowing the seeds germinate successively, and after 2 months they enter the peak germination period; the germination rate is usually above 85%. After germination, they can be moved into seedling bags for cultivation in about 10 days or so. Because germination is uneven, transplanting should be done in batches. For container seedling cultivation, the nutrient soil should preferably be loose, fertile garden soil with 3% superphosphate added. The seedling bag size should preferably be 8 cm x 15 cm. When transplanting, water thoroughly to settle the roots, and shade for about 1 week. After that no shading is needed; water frequently to keep the soil moist, and regularly remove weeds. After 1 month compound fertilizer can be applied, and thereafter 1-2 times per month. The concentration should not be too high; it is best to apply small amounts frequently. After application, rinse the seedlings with clear water to avoid fertilizer damage.

3. Planting and cultivation

To cultivate large landscaping seedlings, container seedlings of about 40 cm can be used for planting. Before planting, the land should be prepared; pit-style land preparation can be used, and planting should be done during rainy weather in the rainy season. When planting in the dry season, some branches and leaves should be removed and the plants watered thoroughly to settle the roots. Terminalia trees are easy to establish; the survival rate of afforestation is usually above 90%. The crown of Terminalia is relatively large, and the crown diameter is almost equal to the tree height, so the transplanting density should be sparse, preferably 1.5 m x 2 m. Terminalia grows fast, with annual height growth of more than 1.2 m. To cultivate a good crown shape, pruning should be done in time; side branches below 2 m should be removed.

The above is an introduction to Terminalia seedlings. The Terminalia tree is a tropical tree species that grows luxuriantly under warm climatic conditions. It likes light and grows well under full sunlight or moderate shade. The tree grows fast, its branches spread out flat, and its crown is broad like an umbrella, very beautiful, with a good shading effect, making it an excellent landscaping tree species.
