Germination/Propagation Top

Suggest a correction or add new data!
Sow at 4°C for 3 weeks, then increase to 20°C.
Requires Soaking: These seeds need to be soaked in warm water until they swell, which can take 24-48 hours. Seeds that float are usually not viable and should be discarded, along with the soaking water.
