Growing Carolina Buckthorn from seed

alabamatreehugger 8b SW Alabama

I have a Frangula caroliniana that has grown beautifully (after several failed attempts) and finally has berries this year. Anyone here have experience starting these from seed? I'm guessing the pulp needs to be removed and the seeds kept cold and moist over the winter?

note that propagation can also be done thru cuttings .... which MIGHT get a bigger plant.. faster ...
