Default Clivea propagation

I would also like to know what to do with clivea seeds


Remove seed from the fleshy pod, remove the thin membrane around the seed,
plant (pressed into the surface but not buried) in sterile potting mix kept
moist not wet. Bright indirect light or under fluorescents. Germination
should occur in several weeks. Once the first leaf has developed, fertilize
lightly. Keep the plants growing for 3-4 years until they have 12-13 leaves.
Then they can be kept dry and cool (12 weeks in autumn) in order to induce
flowering.
