Hesperaloe seed are very easy to germinate. Use any good potting mix, sow them on the top of the soil then cover very lightly with either the same mix or fine sand. Keep them evenly moist and you will find that germination is best if the soil and the surrounding air is very warm. I don't know where you are, but here in southern Arizona they will germinate beginning at around 75 but are much better once the temperatures are over the 90 mark. They will look like grass, so just be patient and they should do just fine. Best of luck, Mary Irish
