Hi

Does anyone have any tips for dealing with the seeds of this plant.

I checked out a Thompson & Morgan site and it said "Germination -
challenging", and gave a set of steps to take to achieve success.

Other sources of information, that I cannot trace right now, recommend
a far less strenuous approach.

Ah! Heres one http://vandusen.plantexplorers.com/p...roducts_id/146

I would be interested to hear of the experiences of others

Waste of time, don't bother with 'em - send 'em here let me deal with
them ;~]

This is the text of the book T&M used to publish - fairly reliable. I
don't recall any particular problem getting them germinated, now
getting them to flowering size........that's another story.
