I plant my seeds in potting trays, direct, moist "not wet" seed starter mix, success rate 90 to 95%
I know lots of folks who start seeds in peroxide/water mix, others in moist paper toweling, but I never really understood the reasoning.
Seeds planted in the starter mix do not need anything extra, and zero chance of the root breakage when planted.
The only reason to pre-sprout in my mind is to see if the seeds were viable.
But if you have good firm seeds to start with, it shouldn't matter.
Also evergreen or semi evergreen sprout fairly fast, hard dormant can take a lot longer is some cases I have seen it take over a month.
Sometimes the easiest way
