Japanese Snowbell

  • Product number: 652680
  • Origin: Japan
  • Latin: Japanese Snowbell

This (wrongly!) unknown tree grows in many places in Japan and is completely hardy in our climate. The beautiful blossoms (in June) of hanging, fragrant, white flower clusters are greatly appreciated by bees, and the fruits are edible for humans and birds. The shiny green leaves change beautifully in autumn to lovely orange hues.

Names:
Latin: Styrax japonicus
Dutch: Japanse Storaxboom
English: Japanese Snowbell

Sowing method: The whole year. First, pre-soak the seeds for 24 hours in lukewarm water, then sow them in a mixture of coco peat and sand. First, keep them warm for 2 months (never let them dry out), then refrigerate them for 3 months. Finally, warm them up again: germination should follow. If germination occurs earlier, continue with the sprouted seedlings.
