Hippeastrum Acquisition Syndrome

Sun, 08 Jan 2017 16:37:33 PST
How ironic that my name is Chad. And I've got CHAD bad. In fact I am a new member and one of the reasons I joined was to find more resources to treat the symptoms of my CHAD, since I am unable to find any of the ones that I really want. Do any of you fellow CHAD sufferers have any advice or info that might help me? Oh please help!

There is another member of Tecophiliaceae here in Zambia, Cyanastrum johnsonii as well but at the moment I don't have any experience growing it but I hope to collect it from a friend soon. I can contribute photos of all three species for the wiki if you would like?
