Uses and Culture

USES

PROPAGATION/CULTIVATION

  • Each tiny dry fruit contains 1 seed. Air dry the fruit at room temperature in a bowl or paper bag. Carefully rub the fruits through a strainer with the appropriate size mesh. The seeds should fall through leaving the debris in the strainer.
  • NTBG (Lilleeng-Rosenberger 1996) had success using a medium consisting of 3 parts perlite to 1 part Sunshine Mix #4. Seeds in this batch began germinating in 5 days.
  • NTBG (Ragone 1993) found high percentages of non-viable seeds in some batches; the embryos in these seeds had aborted or were missing. With viable seeds, NTBG (Lilleeng-Rosenberger 1996) reports 90% germination rate with fresh untreated seed. Obata found that untreated seeds of Achyranthes splendens had a germination rate ranging from 30 to 75%. (Lilleeng-Rosenberger 1996; Lilleng-Rosenberger 1998; Obata 1967; Ragone 1993; Wagner 1990)
  • Mew advises that Achyranthes splendens grows easily from cuttings using a rooting hormone and automatic mist system. Waimea Arboretum recommends selecting cutting material from short side branches and rooring the cuttings in a well drained medium such as sand. (Anonymous 1986; Mew 1987) [Data from Herring, E. C., & Criley, R. A. (2003). The Hawaiian Native Plant Propagation Web Site: Developing a Webbased Information Resource. HortTechnology, 13(3), 545-548. https://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/hawnprop/]
