Just over two years ago I bought some Magnolia campbellii seeds (7). Divided them and started one set at 70 inside, one in fridge, one outside, and the rest delayed until midsummer. All were put outside the following winter… so far not a single germination!!!

I think these are VERY difficult…  Maybe the seeds have to be very fresh…

Like many tree seeds, Magnolia seeds should not be allowed to dry out after harvesting. If one is storing the seed it should be kept in a moist medium until sowing.
