Thank you Luminita for the six packets of seed which arrived just now. I
expect others who ordered might be curious about when their envelope might
arrive so I am writing this to the list. Last year I sowed seed in mid
November from that BX Jane et al. ran for us. Although I was at first
apprehensive about sowing this late in the season, I had excellent
germination results and most made it thru the long summer dormancy and are
growing on now. So I suggest if your climate is like mine (Santa Barbara,
California) that you go ahead and sow now, not wait until next August.

I would especially like to thank these seed donors who provided these:
10. Fritillaria persica, Francisco Lopez
59. Moraea setifolia, Chris Cooper
94. Tecophilaea cyanocrocus, Jan Jeddoloh, 3 seeds
97. Aristea inaequalis, Linda Press Wolf
170. Babiana sambucina ex Silverhill 287, James Henrich
182. Gladiolus carinatus ex Bulbophile Harvested April 2020, James Henrich

I do appreciate how tedious it is to harvest and clean seed. I list these
specifically because you are welcome to write and ask how your seed fares.
When I send seed out I am curious how well it grows for others. Or if
others received these same seeds, we can compare our methods and results.

Gastil,
sowing hope
