Growing Protea 'Neriifolia' from seed

Hi,
I have collected Protea Neriifoia seeds which I wish to germinate. Any special tips on germinating these seeds would be appreciated. There's nothing in my gardening books.
Thanks

| Proteas need an acid based potting mix, but I'd use a native one and you will need to use a smoke starter. They do not like root disturbance so use separate tubes. I did not have much luck with my first lots, nor did I use these instructions!!!! I'm hoping for better luck this time. I think they can also be slow to germinate. |
