Germination/Propagation Top

Suggest a correction or add new data!
Start at 4°C for 3 months, then warm to 20°C for another 3 months.
Sow seeds immediately as their viability decreases rapidly, or they best germinate when fresh. If stored, seeds might need temperature cycling and patience to germinate.
