Sarcopoterium menziesii


I have been given a small amount of this unusual seed which I would like to
propagate, but I am unable to find any information about this Genus.  The
good-sized seeds, which look like small brown peppercorns, seen hard enough
to require a hot water soak, or nicking etc.  Has anyone any knowledge or
experience with growing this?  The owner of the mother plant (in a local dry
garden) believes it originates from Israel.  Any comments?  I'd like to be a
little better informed before I start experimenting with my limited quantity.
 Thank you in advance for your help.
