Matteo,

I would try Penroc: http://www.penroc.co.za/
You can ask for their seed-catalogue here: http://www.penroc.co.za/buy.html
You can find a nice article about this species on their site: http://www.penroc.co.za/newsletters2007/nov07/nov.html

Matteo,  Kurt Vickery in England has a fantastic catalogue of seeds and bulbs. His seeds are of incredible quality and every single one germinates, something one seldom finds in commercial seed. And one finds all the time in one's own seed.

It's not on Kurt's  latest list, Matteo, but it may be worth contacting him to ask about it.
See list and details:
