Title: Next seed exchange
Post by: Bulbous on August 03, 2022, 04:25:20 PM
When is the next seed exchange and where do I send them.  I have a good handful of B. haemanthoides seed but they are trying to sprout.

I should have looked at the other section.  By the way how best to delay the germination of this seed.

Hello Jim,

You can contact Jan, she is in charge of the US seed exchange.
You cannot delay germination of this kind of seed.
If Jan cannot accept your seed right now, you can sow it and donate the seedling bulbs next year.

Jan's email address seedyjan1@gmail.com

She has just opened the donation for the next BX, but it might be a good idea to let her know that your seed cannot be stored.

Hope that helps 

Uli
