The initial show after a few days followed by the soil erupting a week later. Note that the soil has dried out at this stage, and was wetted soon after.
After a further 10 days, pretty much full germination, some still coming through. Also, several examples of polyembryony in case there weren't enough plants already.
These are seeds that are more than 1 year old - fresh seed won't germinate well. And they say that Commiphora germination is difficult so you tend to pack a lot of seeds into a small space.
