Banana Seed Germination Forum As one of the toughest seeds in the plant kingdom to figure out the keys to germination success with, this is a forum with banana seed germination tips. Please entitle posts like "Musa balbisiana," or "Musa cheesmani," etc. People would then post a reply under that heading, sharing their germination successes (and failures), what materials and methods they used, germination percentage, etc.

perhaps those are large pieces of fired clay. the mixture i use has components of that, peat, and large grained river sand.

if you're talking abt the orange bits, thats osmocote slow release fertiliser.

Well done , try and keep it alive :-) in your location perhaps you will get your own fresh seed at some point. If you do let us all know as they seem to be very rare here.
Best Wishes
Steve
