I pulled some of the purple seeds off my Burretiokentia hapala, cleaned them and dropped them in a zip lock baggy with some damp perlite and sphagnum moss.  I'm using a little heat, wrapping the bag in foil and leaving it on top of my water heater).  I'm curious what typical sprouting time is on this species if anyone has used this technique with this species.

I struck some a few years ago, no baggy , no heat, just in a pot outside.

So I imagine yours should be fine.

It is not dead, it is just senescence.

How long did it take for them to germinate?

Dave, I won't guess because it was over 8 years ago, I cant remember, but it didn't seem long at the time as I recall. 

One was variegated but it grew out of that, I have since given them all away.

Thanks for the rapid response 

Most of the New Caledonians take a month or two 

BUT candor appreciated!
