Hi, I bought some seeds of Grevillea robusta to grow as an annual/houseplant and just need some basic advice on it......Like how long does it take to sprout and does it grow fast from seed? Should I do something special to the seeds before I plant them? I wasn't sure where to post this so I'm puting it here and in the tropicals forum.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi, you may try this site: http://www.na.fs.fed.us/pubs/silvics_manual/volume_2/grevillea/robusta.htm
I'd be interested to find out where you got them from as I'm looking for seed. Here's a pic of a few trees growing near the beach in Vancouver.

I got the seed at the Ontario Gardening Show. They are Unwins seeds. Here's a link their website http://www.unwinsdirect.co.uk/rkMain.asp?PAGEID=20589 ......I took a look but I couldn't find them there. You could try emailing them though. And thanx for the link, I will check it out right away!
