Seed of Michelia champaca were treated variously to enhance germination. All coat softening treatments failed to improve germination. Little improvement in germination was observed in seeds prechilled at 5°C. Gibberellic acid was found effective in promoting total germination as well as speed of germination in terms of germination value.
