Olearia pannosa Seed Propagation

 

On Wednesday 6 August Investigator College Year 4 students spent some time looking at the Olearia pannosa seeds with magnifying glasses to check for seed viability. Following this, we planted half of the seeds we were given into tubes. If they all germinate, we will have 100 Olearia pannosa seedlings to plant around our Goolwa Campus and out at our Currency Creek site next year. The remaining seeds will be used to re-seed any that don’t germinate over the next two to three weeks. Hopefully we will also have seed left over to do a second planting later in the year.

We are looking forward to watching them germinate.
