Interesting, I thought they were infertile. Did you use a particular trick for pollination? I recently bought some bulbs so I will wait till I can get seed myself. But I have to get flowers first  :)

Hi Rob ,

I had in this year really a lot of flowers in same time ...
In my collection are different clones - normal R.bifida from UK and R.bifida Oxblood Lily from USA ...
and I have pollinated all together :)
