Seed Comments |
The seed pod is quite unusual, and consists of two valves. The seeds are about 1.5-3 mm long. Their colour varies tremendously from bright orange or red to black, to mottled with orange, red, tan, and yellow. You should put fresh seeds in hot (50C) water, cover, and let stand for 12-24 hours. Then, mix seeds with moist seed-sowing mix and leave them out for another 24 hours before sowing. For stored seed, the water temperature should be 70-90C, and leave them in it for 48 hours. Stratification aids germination.
