Title: Hippeastrum seed offer
Post by: Hans J on June 27, 2015, 08:14:10 AM: Hi all ,

before some weeks I had flowers on my Hippeastrum harrisonii :
http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=12782.msg333473#msg333473 (http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=12782.msg333473#msg333473)
I had the idea to try self pollination ( works somtimes by Hippeastrum )
and now I can report that my try has worked well ;D
I have now some seeds to give away ( for free )
If anybody is interested so please write me a PM

Have a nice weekend
Hans

Maggi ...maybe in Scotland they need two month ::)
I have in this time a fruit of Pamianthe ...it is said it need 1,5 years before the seeds are ripe :o

Still some portions of H.harrisonii( a 20 seeds ) left over - come on !
