I have never tried germinating immature seed, it may be possible.
Growing them from mature seed is pretty easy.
Harvest the seed when the pods begin to split. Provide 60 days cold
stratification and then sow. Or sow in the fall and seedlings will
emerge in late spring/early summer.

I will ask again while you more knowlgerble gardener are
taking a well earned rest. What is the more productive way
of propagating french blue double lilac seeds; green in
the same season produced, or let them brown over during
the winter and then plant next spring?

Ciao, Ack.
