Is it difficult to grow Hans? I would like to try it. I'm sure I can find some space.

Hi Anthony ,
No - H. albiflos is the easiest of all Haemanthus species .
I will write you later some advices -seeds going out for you in next days .
Greetings

Hi Hans,
do you grow other Haemanthus as well? I grow H.albiflos and sanguineus and also the near related Scadoxus puniceus (syn. H natalensis). I am looking for seeds of the others but since the seeds are fleshy, they are only possible to store for a very short time :(
Cheers

Hi Hans,
I have noticed you also grow Habranthus, are you interested in all bulbous Amaryllidaceae? I also have a lot of young plants and also some seed. I will compile a list of what I have and send it private to you!
Cheers
-
Hi Peak ,
You are rigth - I'm a little crazy for all kinds of Amaryllidaceae .
With interest I have also read your note about Worsleya !
I wait for your list::)
Greetings Hans
-
I shouldn't be surprised!

Anyone fancy growing this? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AMORPHOPHALLUS-TITANUM-TITAN-ARUM-SEED-RAREST-SEED_W0QQitemZ290092424819QQihZ019QQcategoryZ20534QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Anthony, supposing I had the space, I have enough bother with the stink from Arum dioscorides outside by back door! :P I would worry that the pong would kill little Lily, the newest member of the Young Clan, or she might fall into the flower and it devour her! :o
-
Anthony I only grow seed of plants whose website/URL I can remember off by heart! A chum in the North Island may want it though. He grows a lot of Amorphophallus species.
-
I am right now trying to germinate sedds from two Amorphophallus species, one Chinese and other from Madagascar. I do believe that the seeds needs to be fresh, my are probably to old :(
Perhaps now coming close to a famous Meconopsis thread, the name of this genus is quite descriptive ;)
-
I quite fancy growing one of the hardier species, but the Titan Arum would be too big and probably requires a lot of heat!
-
Hi everybody !

if anybody is interestet please contact me private .
Greetings
Hans

Hi all ,
I will not break here the rules of seed distribution ;D - but I think it is better to distribute real fresh seeds .
I can offer now seeds of :
Helleborus viridis ex Lake Garda
Iris attica ( from different colors )
Everybody who is willing to swap some plants/seeds with me is invited to contact me privately
Greetings ::)
