Stephanotis take anywhere from two weeks to two months to germinate. After about two weeks as small seedlings prick them out and plant them into a larger container. Stephanotis grows throughout most of Australia, although the plant doesnt thrive in the cold.
The time to start the seeds depends on the growing season for the flower, your climate and how long it takes the seed to germinate and grow into a healthy seedling. Generally, you can start most flower seeds indoors six to eight weeks before the planting date recommended on the seed packet.
