Donald, I've been told that Spuria's take two years to germinate as do LA's.
Anyone dispute that rumor? I have a bunch of pods I collected several years

them out of the house! (Both Spurias and LA's)
Betty,

I did some SPU crosses this summer. I took the pods when ripe but not dry, planted them immediately, and watered them regularly. That was in Sept. I have sprouts now. I doubt I will get all the germination this fall, but I certainly got a bunch.
