Eucomis pole evansii

I am growing what I believe to be this bulb here in SE UK. It grows ok 
but not massive in stature, and does not increase much in number by 
clumping and I suspect wants higher temperatures than we get in general. 
This and several other Eucomis, probably all hybrids, grow ok here and 
most produce seed but I get very few self-sown plants, and none so far 
round around the E p e  Is it because it is too cool here before the 
seeds rot. Should I collect them now and sow in the warm?

I have grown Eucomis before from seed but just odd hybrid? plants from 
seed acquired from the ground somewhere in the past.

Brian Whyer, SE UK, wet and cold, frost last night, but rarely serious 
over the last few years. Snow a rarity now it seems. Rainfall ~20" pa.
