Soak seed in glass of water for 12 to 24 hrs. Half the time it will sprout in water. Then place between damp paper towels in a not tightly closed container in sunny spot. Seeds should open in a day and then carefully pot seedling. Start seedlings in tiny pots with really good drainage and seedling starting soil.
