Congratulations on your success!

You may not have to wait a few years.  To my surprise I had two Geissorhiza
species bloom this year in the same year the seeds were planted (monanthos
and aspera).  I don't know if they all can do that, but it was a nice
surprise.

By the way, the G. monanthos seeds came from BX 291 via Richard Smith
(thanks, Richard!), who in turn got them from BX 35 via Mary Sue Ittner
(thanks, Mary Sue!).

Conservation through cultivation in action.
