I have had very poor luck germinating seeds of Aloes. Can anyone give me directions on how to handle seeds from Aloe species of South Africa? I have obtained seeds from two different sources in South Africa and one in Brazil (but South African species). Over too many years to remember, I have had one success: two seedlings of Aloe ecklonis (seed from Brazil). I need advice!
