Started germinating in April 2014 after planting in March 2014.
Here is this year’s baobab seedling; out of a batch of 4 only one germinated fully into a seedling but it has done well.
The mix for the seeds was around 40% sand, 5% bark, 5% akadama, 5% kiryu, 10% fuji grit, 25% pumice & 10% compost plus slow release granules.
This seems to work well with the existing seedlings as well as getting seeds to germinate.
I did not cut the terminal shoot this time but just let it grow and this is the result.
Note for next time, plant seeds in larger pot as growth rate exceeded pot size!
