Description

The listing, The Telegraph Plant: Codariocalyx Motorius (5) Seed has ended.

Sowing: Sow indoors at any time of year.
Soak the seeds in a container of warm water for a day or two. Fill small pots or trays with a moisture retentive compost, (Mix of humus, garden soil and a little bit of sand.) and stand in water, then drain.
Plant the seeds at a depth of 1cm (3/8 in) and cover the container with clear plastic wrap or lid. Place the pots in a warm place, ideal germination temperatures are 24 to 27°C (75 to 80°F) Germination of the seeds can start in 10 days, with the majority germinating in 30 days. They may take up to 90 days, so don’t be discouraged. Desmodium gyrans is well known as the “Telegraph Plant” and famous for its movement. The small lateral leaflets will rotate on their axis, moving in jerky motions under the slightest influence of touch, sunshine, warmth or small vibrations. At night they droop downwards.
The plant is native to Asia, easy to raise from seed. The soil must be kept consistently moist, without drying out between watering. The perfect place for this plant is a light shade, since a direct sun is far too strong for its delicate nature.
The foliage is very simple; it has a very airy look to it with delicate stems that bear the leaves. It is a fascinating plant, perfect for children to grow and have fun with, the plants really do 'dance' in their own way.
