How to Propagate Adansonia digitata

The baobab, that ancient titan of the African savanna, whispers a silent challenge to the aspiring gardener. Its seed, a stony jewel encased in a shell of defiance, resists the earth’s embrace. The careful rasp of a file, the painstaking nick – each act unveils a promise, a tiny spark of life held captive within. Days bleed into weeks, a slow dance of anticipation, the air thick with the humid breath of hope. Finally, a tentative shoot, a verdant spear piercing the darkness, mirroring the slow, majestic rise of the mother tree, a testament to patience and persistence. The reward? A connection to millennia, a living legacy held within the palm of your hand.
