Can anyone help me start ligularia from seed?  I've tried 3 times with
different environments with no success.
First you have to have seed, it does not set seed very often.

Once you have real seeds, I would soak them for 2 days in water.

Start with hot water and soak the seeds, and change the water every 12 hours 
or so with fresh hot water.

Sow and use 55-70F,and wait.  Sometimes it might take a year or more.
Keep the medium moist at all times, does not need to be wet, just don't let 
dry out.
