They grow natively, here, but not many native plant sellers seem to sell them, citing their difficulty in cultivating them.

I soaked 30 seeds for 24 hours, then planted them in a seed starter greenhouse with peat under a grow light.

Id take half your seeds (or as many as you have room for) still in the soil pots and put them in the fridge for a month.

I say only half because it’s a little late in the season to waste a month on cold stratification, but it really helps with germination. Some might sprout without it and they’ll have an extra month of growth before winter this year.

It is a good season to take new growth cuttings now. They can take a month or more to root, so be patient.

Got it! I plan to overwinter them as I missed the critical planting window this year (I have a warm grow cabinet and powerful grow light, so hopefully things will work out!). :)
