I have seeds for Osmanthus fragrans, and I see that they can take a *very* long time to germinate... years, in fact. Has anyone done this? Is there something I can do to speed the process? I'm willing to experiment: boiling water, hydrogen peroxide, the old nick&soak, "smoke treatment," whatever. I can't find any information about this.
Thanks.

Try breaking them a little (not completely crunching them). This could perhaps help germination.

Find a grower for Osmanthus fragrans and ask them.

You might try rephrasing your question, using the common name of sweet olive.
Good luck.
