Well, about 3 months ago I planted D. petiolaris seeds, they didnt sprout, & I figured I screwed up, and they had cashed in... well, I saw today that they were there, just in the inconspicuous places. I have about 3-4 seedlings.

 I was pretty happy with it all.

Keep us posted, i'm really interested to hear how these do for you.
 
WoooHoooo!!!! Good things take time! I had the same happen with my D. dilatato-petiolaris so hopefully we can trade once they grow a bit. Congratulations!
 
Thanks everyone

Did you treat the seeds somehow?

GA3? Warm stratification? Anything else?

Thanks,
Marcus
 
Hi Marcus,

My plants germinated after a half year wait. Extreme patience is advised. Although I have heard that high temps. are needed, this has not proven to be the case in several instances I am aware of, but probably wouldn't hurt.
 
Mine didnt get anymore heat than you would normally use to germinate seeds. Thats why I wasnt expecting much
