Commonly grown as Christmas trees, these also make a great bonsai tree variety. To plant, stratification in a fridge for 2-3 weeks can help, then put on a heat mat at >70F in a greenhouse. Monitor the soil in the greenhouse to make sure it remains moist(check about 1 a week), and add water if needed.
