Just drop it in your tank and leave it on the substrate untill it sprouts. Once it does i just let mine go for a week or so and plant them in the substrate a little bit. They send out flower shoots like crazy also.

You might not want the answer to that one. LOL
They can get very large (24" plus leaves easily) but are a very nice plant. The lower the lighting, the slower and more controlled the growth rate though.
