Why Grow Trees from Seed
Growing a tree from seed is cheaper, deeper, and far more satisfying than buying a grown sapling.
You watch the whole journey, from the first sprout to a strong young tree, and the plant adapts to your soil and climate from day one. Seeds also let you grow species that are hard to find as saplings, including native Indian trees and bonsai varieties. One packet can start several trees for the cost of a single potted plant.
Trees give back more than any other plant. Shade, cleaner air, flowers, and a home for birds and pollinators, all from a seed you sowed yourself.
Shop Tree Seeds by Purpose
Pick by what you want your tree to do. Every group below suits local growing conditions.
Flowering Tree Seeds
Colour on a grand scale. Grow gulmohar (the flame tree), amaltas (golden shower), jacaranda and kachnar. These flowering tree seeds grow into canopies that burst into bloom each season and turn any street or garden into a spectacle.
Shade and Avenue Tree Seeds
Function and greenery. Sow neem, peepal, arjun, moringa (drumstick) and rain tree. These are the workhorses that cool a space, clean the air, and stabilise soil. Many are native Indian trees valued for both shade and traditional uses.
Bonsai Tree Seeds
For the patient artist. Our bonsai tree seeds include ficus, adenium, wisteria and gulmohar, all popular choices for shaping into miniature trees. Growing bonsai from seed is a slow, meditative hobby with a beautiful payoff.
Best picks for beginners
Gulmohar, moringa and neem. They germinate reliably after a simple soak and grow quickly once established.
How to Grow Trees from Seed
Tree seeds are tougher than vegetable or flower seeds, so a little preparation goes a long way.
Pre-treat hard seeds
Many tree seeds have a hard coat. Soak them in warm water for 12 to 24 hours before sowing to soften the shell and wake the seed. For very hard seeds, gently nick or rub the coat so water can get in. This one step makes the biggest difference to germination.
Sow and germinate
Sow at a depth of about twice the width of the seed in a light, well draining mix. Keep the medium warm and lightly moist. Tree seeds are slower than most, so expect germination anywhere from one week to several weeks depending on the species. Patience is part of the process.
A quick transplant tip
Move seedlings to a larger pot or the ground only after they have a few strong leaves and a firm stem. Transplant in the evening to reduce shock, and water well for the first week.
Tree Seed Germination Guide
| Tree | Before sowing | Germination time |
|---|---|---|
| Gulmohar | Soak 12 to 24 hours | 7 to 15 days |
| Amaltas | Soak and lightly nick | 2 to 4 weeks |
| Neem | Sow fresh, soak 12 hours | 1 to 3 weeks |
| Moringa | Soak overnight | 1 to 2 weeks |
| Bonsai (ficus, adenium) | Soak and keep warm | 2 to 6 weeks |
Warmth and steady moisture matter more than anything for tree seeds.

Yes, most do. Soak hard-coated seeds in warm water for 12 to 24 hours, and gently nick the very hard ones. This softens the shell and greatly improves germination.

It depends on the species. Fast growers like gulmohar and moringa sprout in one to two weeks, while amaltas and bonsai varieties can take three to six weeks. The germination guide above lists timings.

Gulmohar and amaltas are the most loved for their dramatic seasonal blooms, followed by jacaranda and kachnar. All grow well in warm conditions.

Yes. We provide same day delivery within the city, so you can order in the morning and start preparing your seeds the same day.

Germination varies by species and depends heavily on correct pre-treatment. With soaking and warmth, most of our tree seeds germinate reliably within their expected window.
10. How long do tree seeds stay viable?
It varies widely. Some, like neem, are best sown fresh, while many hard-coated tree seeds stay viable for a year or more when stored cool and dry. Sow sooner for the strongest results.
