Can I grow seeds from my monkey puzzle tree?

Our Advice:

Sow the seeds into pots of John Innes No1 compost and leave them outdoors in a sheltered place to see if they germinate. Usually, male and female trees need to grow close together to allow cross-pollination in order for live seeds to be produced so, sadly, your seeds may be empty.
