Hi all,
It’s grab bag time again.  I only have one but I’ve listed the contents below.  The number after each species is the number of packets available. You’ll notice there are almost no amaryllidacea in the bag.  I was contacted by a Phd student who is trying to tissue culture amaryllidacea to use the alkaloids in medical research so I sent him most of what I had.  Medical scientific research is a good thing and PBS members had already had a good crack at the seed.  

If you donated seed of a species that has a lot of leftovers this is a clue that you may want to send in fewer seeds next time.  Sometimes the market just gets saturated if the seed has been offered regularly for a time.  This doesn’t mean to not send any of this seed in, just consider the amount.  We’re always getting new members and they may be looking for this very seed. 

Babiana rubrocyanea  2
Bomarea multiflora  3
Chasmanthe bicolor 1
Cyrtanthus mackenii 1  (this is not the pink one)
Dracunculus canariensis 4
Drimiopsis pusilla 7
Ferraria sp. 1
Hypoxis nitida 6
Lachenalia nervosa 4
Ornithogalum hispidulum?  ID uncertain 7
Sinningia bullata ‘Florianopolis’ 2
Sinningia conspicua 5
Sinningia larae 5
Sinningia leucotricha 1
Sinningia macropoda 3
Sinningia micans 2
Trachyandra ciliata 3
Velthemia bracteate 1
Zephyranthes ’Sunset Strain’ 1

Now for the rules.  You must be a paid up PBS member (I check) .  If you are interested send me your name and mailing address as it should appear on the envelope.  Do not reply to the list. I will randomize the orders and pull one.  You will get a two word “Got it” acknowledgement of your request.  The cost is $15 plus $4 shipping, or shipping at cost for Canadians.  

Deadline for orders is 5pm PDT,  Wednesday September 21st.  

Jan
