Title: PawPaw Seed Germination

NAFEX Members --

I have some fresh pawpaw seeds that I would like to germinate.  Last year I kept gathered some fresh seed, put them in moist peat moss in a plastic bag, kept them in the refrigerator over winter,and potted them in the spring.  None germinated. 

Would appreciate it if someone had some ideas on how I should proceed this year.

Thanks very much.
