Default [IBC] Boabab Seeds

The way i germinate my baobab(see spelling) seeds are as follows.

The seeds i got were already scarified, so if yours arent do so first.
Then pour HOT water into a container and put yopur seeds into it over
night.
The ones that swell up are the ones that have taken and you can then plant
them
in a well drained soil. You can only do this in early spring as you can not
water
this species in winter at all.

Good luck

Has any one got experience of germinating Boabab seeds, i got it from

south
africa, when Charles Ceronio visited us.
