Found this, the author tried several methods and this was the best.
Sowing time is from mid winter to mid spring.
Fill 3in (8cm) pots with a moist, soil-less potting compost.
Sow about three seeds ¼in (5mm) deep in each.
Wrap the pots in polythene to retain moisture.
Place sowings in a temperature of 70F(21C).
After three weeks move to the main compartment of a refrigerator, which will be at about 40F (5C), for three weeks.
Return to warmth at approximately 70F (21C).
Germination will commence in a further 10 to 14 days.
