Just toss the seeds either in a pot or on the ground where you want it
to grow.  Golden Rain trees germinate readily and are easy to grow.  I
get thousands of seedlings every year from my tree and have to yank them
out as weeds.  Even so, I love this tree so much that I will put up with
it's offspring and even transplant them here and there.

For me in zone 8b, this tree will grow several feet a year and reach 30
feet in about 10 years.  It is fairly hardy and only once, when we hit 2
degrees did it freeze down to the ground.  It then came back even
stronger and faster from it's roots, reaching full size in about two
years.

Hope this helps.

Linda
