Sowing cephalotus seeds

I acquired some Cephalotus seeds a little while ago and have not had any time to plant them so they have been cold stratifying in the fridge for about 2 months now.  I am curious as to what is the best medium to plant these seeds onto?  If I plant them onto sphagnum moss only, I risk the moss over growing the seed and wasting the seed.  I was thinking that I could sow it on top of a mix of 1 part sand, 1 part perlite, 1 part vermiculite, 1 part peat and 1 part chopped sphagnum.  Would this have enough drainage for it?  Does anyone have any soil mixes that have worked especially well for them.  I would love to hear from you.

Cheers
 
i grow mine in 2/1 sand/peat, but i started with a cutting-sized plant, not seed.

does great though!
