From Jim Waddick:
1. Seed of Lycoris hybrids: "These are a mix of the following species and
hybrids all grown outdoors in Kansas City, MO USA Zone 5.
Lycoris chinensis, L. longituba and L. sprengeri. Some of the parents are
hybrids and some are species, but they are regularly inter-fertile and will
produce a mix of colors from orange-yellow to lighter shades of yellow to
white, pink to peach and may show some pale purple influence. In general
smaller seeds are probably from L. sprengeri. Seeds should be planted
immediately, well covered and given a cold winter outdoors. They are slow to
germinate and may take a couple of seasons.
