Seed Handling Instructions:

Pour boiling water over the seeds and let stand for 24 hours.

After this time, the seeds should swell. Any that haven't swelled can be re-soaked with boiling water. Sow the seeds at a depth equal to their width.

Place the container or sowing area in a warm, shady, or semi-shady location.

Ensure the sowing area is protected from frost and cold winds, and that the soil is well-drained.

Keep the soil consistently moist, but avoid overwatering.

Provide the plant with full sunlight once it has established its roots.

SEEDS ARE INTENDED FOR SOWING ONLY!
