    Hi byegeorge. You need to sow the seeds outside in the Autumn to allow the frost to work on them but for a quicker option you can take semi-hardwood cuttings in late summer.

    Hi ladybird4.  Thanks for your reply and advice. I have read about putting seed into the fridge to simulate Winter.  Being impatient !!  I wonder if it would work with Skimmias?       byegeorge

    Hi byegeorge. There is no harm in trying is there. I would go for it. Nothing ventured nothing gained. image
