Hi Nancy, Wait until the seeds have turned red and go ripe, then remove them and gently sqeeze them into a glass of water.

Be careful as each seed has a small hook and if thats broken will fail to germinate.

Allow them to soak for a few days and scoop out all the stuff floating on the top...the seed will remain at the bottom to be gently drained and then layed out on some newspaper to dry...

You can plant the seeds when night temps are around 20c and sprinkle the seeds on top of the soil and lightly cover with spaghnum or peat moss...

They germinate in light....That's it!

Happy Growing
