I'm a little confused about thees seed. I thought you had use the bleach method for thees or something similar. How ever someone I follow in Instagram said the just planted them and they sprouted. Am I mistaken? How should I be planting these?
B. liniflora is the only known species that will sprout without some sort of treatment (and then, usually I soak them in water anyway); all others need the smoke, GA3, or bleach treatment.

The fresh part is probably the trick. I ordered some from a retailer, and they looked old, peaked, not well filled out, and did not germinate worth a hoot. PM me for more info and I will let you know who you probably don't want to waste your $$ on.
How fresh is fresh then? They all have the chemical inhibitor still, and I've not until now heard of anyone give such a claim for any other than liniflora.
Same answer than plant heaten
I had to soak my first batch of b. aquatica in ga3 , now they sprout naturally in sphagnum moss when the seeds fall down to the motherplants
