Hey Kelly, saw your post on PBS. I am still keenly interested in getting some Lycoris seeds, preferably of different varieties, to try germinating them. If you will have any available this year, I would be happy to just get capsules and do all of the extraction and cleaning here. You would likely be able to estimate the number of seeds in the capsules based on your experience to arrived at an appropriate charge. Maybe mailing costs would also be higher??? If so, that would be OK.
