Those are rather large seeds. Have you germinated them before? Are they easy to germinate?

This will be my first try with these, These species have reportedly seen 26F with no damage , so there may be some intrest
as far as cold hardiness.
Larger seeds seem to germinate quicker for me but it is still a matter of how fresh they are, I hope I have some luck with these
Some things I just can not seem to grow or even germinate here, I went through 400+ Queen palm seeds last year, a few batches, some fresh that I cleaned, some pre-cleaned. Tried various germination disciplines, Ater all was said and done I have 2 seedlings.
I think that is Nature's way of telling me to try something else
as far as cold hardiness.
