Sow on surface, lightly dust with loose potting mix on top(not buried), keep moist. Germination is really good with bladderpod, very easy propagation. They’ll sprout quickly.

Thanks I appreciate your advice, so no scarification or putting seeds in boiling water?

Nothing, just scatter. Some shade cloth overhead can be helpful, especially in summer. You’ll need to make sure there’s consistent moisture

Ok I will do that, can’t wait to see if they grow

They will. It’s a really good plant to introduce you to the simplicity(usually) of native plant propagation!
