Requirements: Zones:5 to 9 Growth:Fast Blooms:May through June Light:Full Sun to Partial Shade Water:Medium Nutrients:Medium to Low Red Maple Germination: 1) Put the seeds in a heat-proof container and pour hot water over them. The water temperature should be no higher than 110 degrees Fahrenheit. Let the seeds cool as with the water and allow the maple seeds to soak for at least 24 hours or up to two days. 2) Drain the water and place the seeds in a plastic bag filled with peat moss or vermiculite. Moisten the mixture with a small amount of water. Poke a few small holes in the bag to allow for air circulation. 3) Put the bag of seeds in the refrigerator for approximately 100 days. This stratification process breaks down the seed coats and prepares them for germination. When you remove the seeds, you may see small roots growing from the tips, indicating that the seeds have begun to germinate. 4) Fill 4-inch pots with potting mix and sow the seeds on the surface of the soil. Cover seeds with three-eighths inch of soil. 5) Water the seeds until the soil feels moist. Let the soil dry out before watering again to prevent rotting. 6) Watch for seedling emergence with one to two weeks. When seedlings emerge, provide light shade to prevent burning. Germinacin del arce rojo: 1) Coloque las semillas en un recipiente resistente al calor y vierta agua caliente sobre ellas. La temperatura del agua no debe ser superior a 110 grados Fahrenheit. Deje que las semillas se enfren como con el agua y deje que las semillas de arce se remojen durante al menos 24 horas o hasta dos das. 2) Escurra el agua y coloque las semillas en una bolsa de plstico llena de turba o vermiculita. Humedezca la mezcla con una pequea cantidad de agua. Haga algunos agujeros pequeos en la bolsa para permitir la circulacin del aire. 3) Coloque la bolsa de semillas en el refrigerador durante aproximadamente 100 das. Este proceso de estratificacin descompone las cubiertas de las semillas y las prepara para la germinacin. Cuando retire las semillas, es posible que vea pequeas races creciendo desde las puntas, lo que indica que las semillas han comenzado a germinar. 4) Llene macetas de 4 pulgadas con mezcla para macetas y siembre las semillas en la superficie de la tierra. Cubra las semillas con tres octavos de pulgada de tierra. 5) Riega las semillas hasta que la tierra se sienta hmeda. Deja que la tierra se seque antes de volver a regar para evitar que se pudra. 6) Observa la aparicin de las plntulas en una o dos semanas. Cuando emerjan las plntulas, proporciona una sombra ligera para evitar que se quemen.
