Hello All,
The PBS Seed Exchange is currently seeking donations. 😊

Please send your cleaned and labeled seeds to:
Lisa Zankowski
8N655 Dittman Rd.
Elgin, IL 60124

There's no specific packaging required.
I'll portion the seeds for PBS members based on demand.

Your postage costs will be reimbursed as credit towards future seed purchases.

Please refrain from sending wild-collected seeds.

Should you have any inquiries, feel free to send a private message.

Thank you for your support and contributions!

Best regards, Lisa

Eventually I plan to create a proper post, but I wanted to post this picture on the PBS email list.

Bulb and Seed Exchanges / Haemanthus Seed Available

Hi all-

We have an offering of Haemanthus seed from Mary Sue Ittner, details listed below.

Please send me (not the PBS general list!) an email with your selections and your address at my email address of scsnursery1@gmail.com.

This offer is open until Friday.
Winners will be selected by lottery on Saturday morning.
I will acknowledge receipt of your email within 24 hours.
I will send winners a note on Saturday morning with payment info.
Shipping will be $4.50 as these delicate seeds will need to be sent in a small box, with tracking information.


Haemanthus carneus - just a few seeds, $2.00
 Haemanthus humilis - from pink flowers, fewer $2.50
 Haemanthus humilis - from white flowers, more seeds $1.50
 
 The last one is from the Stutterheim form shown on the wiki:

Best regards,
Lisa

Donations: If you have excess recalcitrant seeds, any short lived/Amaryllid seed, please me at scsnursery1@gmail.com.

It would be ideal to have a few selections in time with the Haemanthus seed that will be available soon.

Best regards,
Lisa

On the PBS email discussion list, there was a question if an import permit is needed for bulbs.

If under 12 items, permit not needed according to this:
