Definitely save some pollen to try crossing your zephyranthes as both the pod and pollen parent. Who knows, maybe you’ll develop your own strain and totally worth a shot :)

Thanks,Fred

no i have not.

I have seen the $100 one at PDN. 

I should still have some sprecklia howardii (i hope). 

They should sprout in the next month and maybe some rainlilies will be in bloom.  I have a hardy hippeastrum in the garden blooming so i should save some pollen as well.
