I have been given some Protea seeds with minimal instructions in a foreign language. Can someone advise please .on condition required.
We've been having a bit of a disscussion on proteas a while back, look here, http://www.gardenerscorner.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=12438 Anyway as regards germination, it generally accepted that they germinate better if given smoke treatment, you can buy discs of paper inpregnated with smoke. I tend to just water the sown seeds with water containing bonfire ash. It worked for me, keeping them growing after that is a bit more of a challenge.
