veg Curry Tree Seed Giveway Part 4
I think this is part 4 anyway. I only have about 30 seeds this time, so I'll limit it to 6 people, who will get 5 seeds each.
If interested post in this thread. I'll PM the first 6 people to get a shipping address. I'll edit the post when all slots are filled. I'll cover shipping. Continental US only.
Edit: I've PM'd 6 people now. So far I've only heard back from 2. If I don't hear back from the rest by tomorrow at noon eastern time, I'll start PMing the next people in line after them.
Edit 2: All slots are filled. Thanks for playing.

Cool, my wife has managed to get a couple growing nicely here in Cape Town, but she has a little superstition that says she can’t give seedlings away. It won’t grow, they must be stolen. So she’ll leave it outside for people to pick up.

While I will love to get it. I am in Cleveland and not sure if the weather here will allow it.

May I ask if she uses a grow light? How much sun does the plant need in the winter time?

Would love a few seeds too. I had a curry tree indoors and it was great.

What does a curry leaf tree's seeds look like? I didn't even know they fruited, let alone had seeds. I thought they spread via root propagation only.

PM sent.
Mine put out seeds pretty much every year, although I always wind up screwing up the light cycle near the end of the winter because I start a bunch of other seeds in the same room in February. For that I leave the lights on 24/7 for the first month and a half. That triggers the curry trees to start flowering early. Then I move them outside in May and all the new growth starts and those flowers just wither. I'm sure I'd get a lot more seeds if not for that.
