Baobab Seeds

Baobab Seeds

    The African Baobab is one of the largest trees to ever exist. It is recognizable by its unusually massive trunk. It is native to Madagascar, Australia, and Africa where it survives by storing water in its trunk which can grow to 10-14m (33-46ft) in diameter. In recent years, the baobab has been dying due to climate change creating droughts in its already arid environment, which leave the tree without any water to store.  

    Interesting Properties

    • The baobab trunk can hold 120,000 liters (32,000 gal) of water.
    • Hollowed baobab trunks can be so large, they have been used as schools, prisons, a bus shelter, pubs, and homes.
    • The oldest known baobab lived for 2,419 years.
    • The baobab is one of the largest tree species in the world in terms of trunk, limb, and crown size.

      As Ordered!

      I ordered three sets of baobab seeds, and all came as ordered in the handy glass vials. I planted the first set, per the instructions, and we'll see how they germinate! I had about 10% germination rate with my last set from a different seller, so fingers crossed.

      WE TAKE SCIENCE SERIOUSLY

      You deserve better than craft store science products. And we think learning is more impactful when you're holding a tangible piece of what you're learning about. That's why Stemcell exists.

      We're dedicated to providing the best scientific products available—whether they're fragments of scientific importance, experimental activities, or just interesting things that scratch your curiosity itch.

      With every new product launch, our list of new ideas gets longer rather than shorter. So check in often for our latest projects, and thanks for being a part of our endeavor to make the world a smarter place to live.

      Believe in yourself; for everything else, there's science.
