How should I grow Amaryllis seeds

I have pods of fertilised amaryllis seeds, which will shortly burst into the plastic bags surrounding them. Has anyone tried growing these, and what's the best way, where and when?

I did about 15yrs ago. the seed is black and papery. I let them fall on the surface of compost and let them get on with it. some germinated and the plants that grew survived for 3 yrs until i was on holiday and the caretaker forgot to take care. came back to find them all dead :o(
good luck with them.
