    Hi 1lisac, I germinate these seeds in ziplock baggies, it takes 3-4 weeks. I also soak them over night in hand hot water. Hope this helps, Linda

    Thank you, that's pretty much what I was told but I wasn't sure...I have done that and so far one is germinated and potted up just waiting on the rest.

    You can also try some bottom heat.
