Description and uses:
kola nut, Cola acuminata from which the Kolatier tree comes, which is an exotic plant from the Malvaceae family.
It is a shrub a few meters high from the same family as the cocoa tree.
This tree grows mainly in central Africa.
Its flowers have 6 petals, they are white in color with a brown ribbed center.
the fruit is a pod about twenty centimeters long, containing the seeds.
Cola nut seeds can be red or white in color, they do not keep long because they dry very quickly and lose their germination power.
To keep them longer, you must place the seeds in damp sphagnum moss; with this method, it will be possible to keep them fresh for several weeks.
Its large seeds are known mainly as being used in the manufacture of Coca-Cola.
Kola nut has stimulating properties like that of coffee.
Kola seeds have interesting therapeutic properties.
We use in particular the species Cola acuminata and Cola nitida.
The nut has a bitter taste due to its high caffeine content like guarana or paraguayan tee and also kolatine.
Sowing and cultivation:
The sowing period for kola nut seeds is carried out when temperatures are warm, it is preferably carried out in June and July.
Start by germinating the seeds in sphagnum moss previously moistened at a temperature close to 35°C or higher if possible.
Germination takes approximately 2 to 4 weeks.
Then, once germinated, plant the seeds in peat pots, covering only half of the seed, germ side down.
Water copiously and leave the pots in the greenhouse until the stem appears.
Once the seed germinates, the stem will quickly appear, place the plant in a bright, warm place.
Do not consume without medical advice.
Also available in the form of a small tree for sale to grow.
