Germinating Crossandra seeds

Miami, FL(Zone 10b)

My Crossandra plant is just about done flowering, and seed pods are forming quickly. I would like to know if anyone has had any experience with propagating this plant, and what is the best technique for sowing seeds, optimal harvest of the pods etc.... Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Olga

I harvested some early this winter and sowed them about two weeks ago. Not very deep, I did barely cover them. Kept lightly moist and I got good germination. I didn't do anything special.

I've read they need light to germinate.

I kept mine on the kitchen counter (very poor light if any) until they sprouted and then moved to the grow lights.
