...easy to germinate and need up to 3 months to sprout.
I obtained 70% germination of RPS seed within 6 weeks at 30C in a damp 50/50 mixture of perlite and vermiculite. Potted into a community pot after roots and shoot started to develop. Growth of the seedlings is slow in low 20s and faster at up to 30C.
