...very easy to germinate and need up to 1 month to sprout.

...very difficult to germinate and need more than 1 year to sprout.
Of the ten seeds that I got one has only germinated so far, it has been 8 months and have followed standard practice, pre soak, bottom heat, etc. I have even tried cracking acouple at the 4 month stage, these have subsequently gone rotten. The other seem to be alright so hopefully they will germinate given time.
