I've grown two lots from seed now, and I soaked them for 3 days, then
potted them (individually in peat, or 'Jiffy' pots) and grew them on a
window sill (not very sunny) they consistently appeared after 6 weeks,
with very high germination rates. I grew them in our spring.
Ones I grew directly in the garden had very poor germination, with two
coming up after a year from planting. I haven't grown them in ordinary
pots, nor have I tried stratifying them, as I do with my TB seed, but
see no need to.
Hope this helps, Jan Clark (Australia)
