Cashew question

[Ansarac]

Will dried leaves tend to regrow after the transplant of 6" multi-stemmed seedling?

I am getting conflicting info, online, that it is hardy, yet does not like to be transplanted, yet can be transplanted at a young age.

I have recently received this plant, in the mail. It looked very nice. So, I left a good review.

So far, all of my tropical plants have fared very well, when they were left in their original wrappings, out of direct sun, and lightly moistened. When I saw no signs of stress in the leaves, and particularly, if I saw new growth, within a week, I would transplant into a 1g pot.

Shock seems to have set-in, over the course of just a few hours, so that there are no leaves left.

Is this normal, for this plant?

When I find myself in such a situation my course of action is to generously apply a good dose of 'Miracle Gro' potting soil, and it usually works for me.

For example, a few days ago, I thought my 'Dendrocalamus Gigantus' bamboo was dead after dropping all of its leaves. After applying a generous amount of 'Miracle Gro' potting soil and watering it daily, I was relieved to find out that after about 1 week later, all the leaves are now coming back. This bamboo variety is really exotic and hard to come by, so I was really relieved that I was able to get it to come back.

My only experience with cashew propagation has been through seeds, and I've had really good results with the productivity. Good luck.

This gives me an idea. Thanks very much.

Do you have any tricks for germinating the seeds, like bottom heat?

Or, can you recommend a good vendor?

Cashews are tough plants , hard to kill and drought resistant ( here at least ) Seeds are easy to grow , no special treatment . In season now here in Mexico .

Only the cold isn't it?

Not sure about the cold Luis , here it only goes down to 7 Celsius in the winter nights .

I just let them dry out for about 1 week, then just plant in rich soil at the desired location.

The best of all worlds situation would be to find a seedling cashew tree that produces large fruit and then propagate it accordingly; from experience, I've found cashew trees, whether seedlings or not, to be very productive.

Ok, Thank's! That's why the small cashew in pot is a good solution to me...

Is the shipping rate agreeable, between Mexico and Southern California?
