First, germination must be facilitated by treating the seeds. There are two methods. One is to soak the seed in water that has been boiled and slightly cooled. Soak for twelve hours. Alternatively, rub the seed between two sheets of sandpaper until the outer layer of seed coating is removed.
Sow the seed into sandy and extremely well-drained soil in the hottest location you can provide (they do not transplant well). Sometimes they have been grown in cement pipes. In Australia, seeds are planted in spring. Water every few days until established, and minimally - if at all - after that.
Even in Australia, the plants are not easy to cultivate, and will need a long growing season to produce blooms. However, the reward from even one bloom is worth the effort - they are stunning and exquisite.
