D. intermedia seeds germinate better with a stratification period. You can sprinkle them in the pot of your choice on good media (50:50 peat to silica sand or perlite is good) and stick the pot in the fridge. Four weeks is the generally accepted amount of time for stratification.

You could also skip stratification, but germination rate is usually lower if you do.
