I have read about clematis seeds being difficult to start. Have any of you been successful with these and if so are there any particular methods you use?
Thanks,
Ibartoo

PRETREATMENT. use seed within 6 months of harvest.... SOAK SEED FOR 24 HOURS CHANGING THE WATER 3 TIMES then STORE AT 40F FOR 2-6 MONTHS.
Do NOT cover the seed as light required. soil temp 65-70F taking 21-28 to germinate.
