Another Great Thing is Blooming begins in Early Summer and may Continue for Most of the Rest of the Year. Red Yucca Germination:1) Wash a flat seed tray with soapy water and rinse in 1 part bleach mixed with 9 parts water. This removes all debris and eliminates lurking plant diseases. Allow the tray to dry completely so the soil does not turn to mud when added. If drainage holes are missing, poke them in the bottom of the tray with an ice pick. Fill the tray halfway with commercial cactus soil mix.2) Spread the red yucca seeds evenly over the top of the cactus soil. Cover the seeds with a sprinkle of cactus soil. Use a spray bottle to mist the soil with room temperature water. Cover the tray with a piece of clear plastic to create a greenhouse effect. This keeps the humidity high.3) It is Very Important to be sure to use a heated propagator mat to keep the soil temperature at 80 degrees F. 4) Keep the trey in bright, indirect light. 5) Remove the plastic and spray the soil daily to keep it moist, "Not Wet", then recover with plastic. If any mold or fungus is found on the seeds, wash them in a copper based fungicide and replace in new, sterile cactus starting mix.6) Patience will be needed as the germination time can occur anywhere from 1-12 months as long as the right conditions are met. If some germinate early, don't toss the others out as they're still good. They just need a bit more time.
