Default Nespoli Seeds

Does anyone know how to "start" a nespoli seed? I'm afraid I may have waited to long, it seems dried out. When I shake it it makes noise. I tried to google it, but found nothing.
Thanks for any information!
Ciao.

Buon Giorno Teresa,
I don't know alot about seeds, but as a child I remember planting nespoli seeds. The way I started them was in a small container with water and cotton until they sprouted and them planted them into a small pot with a good quality potting soil. When they seemed strong enough I planted them outside and they grew into a nice tree. If I can remember correctly they were dry and rattled. I hope this helps.

I was reading on an Italian forum that somebody planted seeds in a Humid tray at the end of May and by August she had 3 small plants - I do not know much personally -
Maybe looking on Google for 'Come piantare le Nespole ' 'Coltivare Nespole'
