You succeeded with Neotinea maculata on B1 then I had no luck with mine symbiotically.  I still cannot get the protocorms to produce shoots,  it has now been three years since they germinated. 

 Did you get any results with N lactea seeds I sent you?

hello Neil,
here is the interesting new information.

Indeed I have some  tiny tubers from the N.lactea.
I found one jar in a "secret place" ;)

I had "forgotten", where I stored some from the january 2015 sowings.
they grew fully in the dark, seemed they have had tiny leaves,
which now are dry,
but tubers are "alive". (will try to make a pic.)
will let them in the jar until end of oct.
the put them into the fridge.

the N. maculata are dead.

cheers

hello friends,
I just found some "forgotten" jars with sowings from jan. 2015.

this is Neotinea lactea, fully grown in the dark,
they are about 3mm size, and now dormant.




enjoy
