Default Baobab

I just can't quit collecting seeds and trees. I think I am addicted.

Just received some Adansonia Digitata (Boabab) seeds. The little blurb that
came with 'em says just to plant straight away . . . no stratification
required. Also said could be 3wks to 6mos to germinate. Some places on the
web say light and humidity is necessary. Other places say its the easiest
seed to germinate.

Do you have experience with germinating this seed?

thank you,
Robert - Mojave Desert

Default Baobab

Now there were some terrible seeds on the planet that was the home of
the
little prince; and these were the seeds of the baobab. The soil of
that planet
was infested with them. A baobab is something you will never, never be
able to
get rid of if you attend to it too late. It spreads over the entire
planet. It
bores clear through it with its roots. And if the planet is too small,
and the
baobabs are too many, they split it in pieces . . .
