Germination of

Leuchtenbergia principis

Albany pitcher plant, Western Australian pitcher plant, Australian pitcher plant.

Leuchtenbergia principis

To germinate Leuchtenbergia principis, start by preparing a well-draining soil mix consisting of equal parts of sand, perlite, and peat moss. Sow the seeds in a small container and cover them lightly with the soil mix. Keep the soil moist and place the container in a warm location with bright, indirect light. The seeds should germinate in 2-3 weeks.

Some of plants may have very have specific germination requirements that may not be covered in these general instructions. 

Many seeds require pre-treatment before sowing which we try to list here when we can, but this information may not be present here.  Germination times and germination temperatures are to be a guide only.  Many factors can DRASTICALLY affect this.

 

It's always a good idea to research the specific germination requirements from multiple sources for each plant before attempting to grow them from seed.
