No not fro my garden...lol People I know.I have to let them dry also. I have Lancifolia and it isnt producing seeds for me. I also have Albo Maginata and it is a transplant from my friend Mary and it already bloomed earlier and I dont know if it had seeds or not.

I bought a new water fountain this year, but no pond yet! Someday maybe.

Any sites that I have go to mention that the seeds should be sown out doors in the garden over winter. They need to freeze to break dormancy.

I am sure that you will have success as every Spring I see little sprouts popping up here and there. Most get moved or given to neighbors.
