Valerie, mine germinate on their own, they grow in full sun,
well-drained soil with some humus but not alot. Water is occasional
-- I dont know where the seeds are so I don't pay attention to them,
which tells me that they don't need much care or water since we get
only 11" of rain per year and I use a drip irrigation system that
runs 2 days a week for about 45 min each time.
Does this help?
