Thanks Chillybean.
Cold stratification is what I used but I was not familiar or comfortable with the process. I will check my local nurseries if I am not able to succeed with seeding but definitely want to try from seed first. I will be patient Smiling

If this is a plant you really want and you have the means to do so, find a native nursery local to you and get some dormant roots or plugs.
Veggies and fruits for the body, flowers shrubs and foliage for the soul...and all these for the insects of course:)
