Tips to Grow Kangaroo Paw

  1. Arrange good quality Kangaroo Paw seed.
  2. The soil should be evenly moist, well-drained, sandy, and slightly acidic.
  3. Presoak seeds in hot water for two hours to soften the seed coat and increase the chances of germination.
  4. Place them on warm, moist seed-starting soil. Keep the soil moist, and don’t give up on germination until at least six weeks have passed.
  5.  You also can propagate the plants by division, cutting apart mature plants at the roots with a sharp knife and replanting them wherever you desire.
  6. Dividing plants every few years also can help to promote healthy growth.
