What is the best way to plant them?
Should I remove the tegument or can I leave the "wings" ?



Don't open up the seeds. This is the sycamore tree. Its seeds need no
encouragement to grow as anyone who lives near one will know.
They will germinate if just laid on soil out doors through the winter in the
UK.
