    Please don't assume that we know exactly what you want. We, or I to be more specific,I need more explanation and am a gardener but not necessarily of indoor plants. Delonix Regia meant nothing to me until I googled the name. So, my dear marcelo freire ramos, I came up with this website for you to explore. Other then that I have nothing to offer being in a northern climate:

    The easiest way os to snip the tip off the seed. This allows water to stimulate the seed. Plant it just deep enough to cover it. A thin layer of sawdust is good and cover it with stone chips. Watch you snip the right end - not the end that was attached to the pod. Insects and slugs can get into the seed through the wound so you have to watch that - chemicals can do it or mix some chillies in water, leave overnight then water on. Good luck and have fun

    Excellent response, but this thread is from 2007. Better check dates before posting, it may entirely be a waste of time as I don't think OP will be back to check.

    I just received these seeds today. This was helpful to me, even from 2007.

    I will be planting my seeds tomorrow, so will be back to update you with a success/failure report.

    Many thanks.
