The dragon blood tree is a very strong plant/tree. It requires little water. Therefore, it is easy to ship in a sturdy package. The plant is packed with great care and protected for shipping, so it arrives well at its destination. Even during the winter period, it can be shipped (as long as the outside temperature is above freezing).
Dragon blood tree seeds germinate best when the soil temperature is around 23 degrees Celsius. You can use your own greenhouse or place the container on the windowsill. Of course, the other conditions must also be good. This means that the seeds should not be sown too deeply, the moisture level of the soil must be optimal, and there should be regular ventilation.
It is best to use clean soil that drains well. For example, use coconut fiber with perlite granules. Mix the coconut soil with perlite and put this in a sealable container (lightly permeable). Then make the soil a little moist with a watering can. The soil should not be soaked, otherwise, you risk the seeds rotting.
Water the seedling moderately but regularly and place it in a warm and bright location. For example, on the windowsill. The dragon blood tree loves a lot of light and warmth... but not wet "feet".
The germination period for dragon blood tree seeds is between 30 to 180 days. When the seedling grows against the lid, it is time to repot the seedling into a larger pot.
It is very simple to sow the dragon blood tree seeds yourself. All you need is: coconut soil, perlite, a sealable container about 10 cm deep, and the dragon blood tree seeds.
To prevent the roots from getting too much water, good drainage is important. I use a mixture of potting soil, coconut fiber mixed with perlite granules. A good ratio is 60% potting soil, 20% coconut soil, and 20% perlite granules.
We often overlook how important and valuable insects are to this world. Many people have a wrong perception of insects and think they are pests. They do not realize the benefits these creatures provide for us and nature. However, when you look at them up close, you will truly see how beautifully crafted these creatures are. They are like little works of art from mother nature. To help people appreciate insects more, I want to preserve them and give them a second "life." Therefore, I search all over Europe for naturally deceased insects and prepare them with utmost care by hand, so you can see what I see.
Yes! I can certainly work with you to design a beautiful display that is just right for you, a friend, your wedding, or your business. Custom-made orders are non-refundable.
With the right basic care, your insect display can last a lifetime. Avoid, just like with any artwork, direct sunlight, proximity to heating, and humid conditions.
Yes, the intestines are always removed from the abdomen, as oils in the abdomen of this butterfly cause stains on their beautiful wings after they have died. You cannot find a Morpho butterfly on the market today with intestines in the abdomen.
