The unique blooms make great cut flowers and can be used in flower arrangements. How to Grow Toad Lily From Seed Toad lilies can also easily be grown by seed. They can be started indoors or by directly sowing them into the garden. Either method you choose, it is important not to bury these seeds, as they require light to germinate. The seeds also must be used fresh, not dried and stored.    To start outdoors, follow these instructions: .1. In the early spring or late fall, scatter fresh seeds in the garden. The cold experienced through winter or early spring will naturally stratify the seeds.  .2. Keep the soil moist and watch for little seedlings. They should appear in the late spring as temperatures warm up.  To start seeds indoors, follow these instructions:  .1. Place fresh seed in the refrigerator in a plastic bag for about one month. This will simulate winter, as the seeds require cold stratification before germinating.  .2. Remove the seeds after one month and lightly sow them on top of moist, rich soil.  .3. Place the seeds in an area with bright, indirect lighting and keep the soil moist. Germination should occur in 4 to 6 weeks.
