Hi Alberto, thanks for the information, I live in the Mediterranean weather in Southern California, I will let you what kind of seed I got later, I will need to find out from the donor. thanks Best regards, Andy ________________________________ From: Alberto Castillo <ezeizabotgard@hotmail.com> To: Pacific Bulb Society <pbs@lists.ibiblio.org> Sent: Thu, April 21, 2011 7:59:56 AM Subject: [pbs] Paramongaiaweberbaueri seeds You say nothing about your local conditions. if they are the winter dormant form sow in spring in pure coarse sand in a deep pot with very good drainage holes. Once germination takes place move gradually to full sun (they grow in full sun). Careful with the waterings. The worst period is the first dormancy but seedlings are apt to keep on growing the first and second season with no dormancy inbetween. On the other hand once mature will live and flower for many years. In summary, hot desert warm season bulb (there is a winter growing form in cultivation). Bulbs very deep in the soil, large, offsetting slowly. Dry winter dormant for a long season.
