Re: Dictamus (Gas Plant) seeds

Dictamnus germinates reasonably well for me when sown deep -- maybe 1/4
inch of soil over the seeds, in late winter.  I find that seedlings come
up rapidly when temperatures rise into the 60s after a month or more of
chilling.

Haven't done the experiment to find out if chilling is essential.
