10 Queen Protea Seeds (Protea magnifica) Rare South African “Woolly Beard” FlowerQueen Protea, (Protea magnifica) or “Woolly Beard” Has the Second Largest Flower Head after it’s Very Close Relative King Protea (P. cynaroides). The Queen Protea is One of the Most Attractive and Sought after Proteas as it’s Very Exotic with it’s Fuzzy Beard Produced in the Middle of the Flowers. No One Picture can Describe how Strikingly Beautiful and Fluffy it is with Flower Head Colors of Different Mixed Hues. With it’s Rounded Bushy Form, this Protea will Look Amazing in Any Garden Environment. Queen Protea grows in well-drained acidic soils and can tolerate frost up to about 25 degrees F for short periods and can withstand some wind, but may show signs of foliage burn from excessive salt winds. They enjoy full sun, and light watering after established. They do not grow well along coastal ranges that are covered with moist fog through the year. Do not disturb their roots as protea roots are very susceptible to infection if they are tampered with. Proteas are light feeders that have adapted to very nutrient-poor soils and will die if strong fertilizers and manure are used. ZONES 9-12Protea Germination:1) Submerge the seeds into a fungicide solution before planting them, and leave them in it for at least 12 hours. You can skip this step, but submerging the seed will make the germination process faster, so it’s recommended.2) For germination with Protea seeds, but sure to have the soil acidity PH value of 5.5 to 6.0. You can make the best mixture by adding coarse river sand and peat or degraded pine needles in an equal amount. In addition to the soil acidity, you need to look after about substrate drainage. This can be achieved by adding perlite.3) The next step is the sterilization of the substrate in order to avoid fungi occurrence. You need to put the substrate into a microwave oven for at least 3 minutes or in an oven for at least 45 minutes. Cool the substrate afterwards. This will kill any fungi or bacteria to make the soil sterile.4) The containers for planting Protea need to be able to contain around 500ml of the substrate (large enough to hold 2 cups of soil), and have a holes at the bottom for water drainage. 5) Never fill the container up to the top, leave at least a few inches of space at the top. Plant the seed at the depth of its size and water it generously with the fungicide solution when first planted. Then be sure to only keep the soil “moist”…(never “wet”), as that will cause the seeds to rot.6) For Protea germination, you’ll need a heated propagator mat to provide a temperature of appx 84°F degrees during the day. Use alternating temperatures to mimic their natural conditions and turn off the heated mat at night. The night temperature can be as low as 55°F degrees. Temperature fluctuations will greatly help germination. Also cover the containers or treys with a small piece of plastic or a humidity dome to keep the humidity levels high. Be sure to cut a few very small holes in the plastic so it’s just enough to allow for a small amount of ventilation. 7) Patience will be needed because of the erratic germination rates with most any tropical or exotic seeds. A few may germinate within a month’s time, but most of the seeds can take up to a period of 3 months so don’t toss any seeds out that do not germinate as they are still good and just need a bit more time.8) Once germination occurs, do not place in direct sunlight & gradually start getting them accustomed to direct sunlight exposure. The seedlings will need moderate moisture exposure to stay moist, (Not Wet), & their substrate cannot be let to dry off. Use a spray bottle to keep a nice balance of moisture and they will do great.
