Stored seed might be coaxed into germination with temperature cycling and patience. Try B. We have no information on this species. We sometimes provide an informed guess about which approach you should try. Let us know what is successful. * rarely sets seed, short viability, ungerminated seed should be discarded after 4 weeks
