Thanks Arnold, I checked the site you suggested but at present they are out of stock of Z. pentlandii. It also appears they are out of stock of all Zantedeschia’s. I will keep my eyes open on their site though just in case they come back in stock.

if they are in South Africa their Zantedeschia's are now in full growth.

Perhaps you can look for seeds to start now.  I started mine from seeds and after 4 years I had my first flower - it could have been sooner if I had spaced the earlier.

Sorry for delay in answering Francois. I live in the UK but will try and obtain some seed for Z. Pentlandii from some source somewhere if I possibly can. I don’t know what the possibilities are of obataining seed from South Africa or who to contact there, but I will try bumbling my way through. Many thanks grenadier ~ aka David.
