  • Description: The properties of Giant Sequoia (Sequoiadendron giganteum (Lindley) Buchholz) seeds originating from a single cultivated Sequoia tree in the second gene strain in the Czech Republic were examined. The maximum germination level was set at 1.8%. This type is a pyrophyte, but nonetheless the short-term effects of a temperature of 100°C simulating a natural fire are still lethal. The seeds were planted with the same success in one case using a fungicide, which is routine practice in nurseries, and in another case using a “biological method” relying on the positive effect of soil microflora. Both stratified and non-stratified seeds can germinate, but stratification increases the number of germinating individual trees to at least double.
