That would be wonderful Rizwan, please do let me know what was the germinating as well as growing experience.

Mir sb. yes the synthetic Vinegar (CH3COOH/Acetic Acid), I think Diamond Nursery (Karsaz) has it easily identified by cream & yellow colored blooms on same plant, not sure about the price may be it was Rs.800/- in 12" black plastic container

izhar.


on the back of the pack it reads ( 20 seeds per pack average)

sow in trays, pots etc of good seed compost in a propagator or warm place to maintain optimum temps of 70-75f ( 20-25c)

sowing depths- compost and cover seeds with its own depth, use ericaeous compost

germination takes around 21-60 days

sowing-anytime of the year

provide temps of 13-18c (55- 65f ) through winter

we just sent a consignment of seeds to lahore and have these in stock.

Rizwan is in the process of establishing his website(muslim seeds company) containing all the seeds information. As soon as it will be complete, it will be announced. Of course we all will be buying from his company. I am sure we will get discount if we do a group trade :P

Mir sb. G. Jasminoides has dark green, oval leaves but G. vietnamensis has paler (comparatively), narrow and longer leaves. You can observe it easily when plants are side by side in nursery.
