I need some advice on germinating seeds of Stachys monieri: not any Stachys, only species monieri. The seeds are from this summer's flowers and appear to be very difficult to germinate. Any info will be much appreciated.

Store seed at 70F for 2-3 weeks then store at 40F for 12 weeks.....
Then do not cover the seed as light required... soil temp 65-70F & takes 10-21 days to germinate & 13 weeks of growing on time to be large enough to set out "green"
If this does not work then check viability of seed....
