How long have you been sowing it? It might take seemingly forever to germinate.
Of a recent batch albomarginata seeds I sowed, first germination happened after 1.5 months. And the last germination after 3.5 months, which was just a few days ago. Huge variation in germination time. I don't know whether more will emerge. This is at exact lowland condition. So, you might want to keep them 6 months before concluding...:)
