Title: hardy Lycoris and Pamianthe
Post by: wooden shoe on March 24, 2011, 08:59:53 PM

For years I have hardy Lycoris and (not hardy) Pamianthe on my wishlist.
Does anyone know how I could obtain seeds, bulbs or plants?
I have tried Tommorowsplants but had no success yet.

I already do have Lycoris longituba, Lycoris squamigera and Lycoris radiata, although the last one is not really hardy overhere.
I would love to find Lycoris sprengeri, incarnata and all other hardy Lycoris.

As for Pamianthe, I have never even seen one for real but if it looks and smells as great as the descriptions I would really like to have them.

Of course I prefer a source which ships to Europe with not to many costs or better even, exchange with a forumist.
Thank you,
Rob

It looks like I will be able to obtain Pamianthe, butI am still looking for the Lycoris.

I am trying to set some seeds on my hardy Lycoris -- L. chinensis and L. longituba at the moment.  Let me know if still interested, in case I get extras.

 I can also provide some L. chinensis seed, but the plants are intermixed with L. longituba so I am unsure which is which. I may get some seed on some others, but the above are the only consistent seed setters.
