I have managed to grow Physoplexis from seed from the NARGS SeedEX and they have now bloomed nicely for two seasons.  Last year I tried to collect seed and I think some germinated early but they did not winter over-looking for suggestions on how best to collect seed as last year what I collected was very difficult to discern seed from chaff

  • Summers too hot, too dry and too long.

I have seed sown at the moment but they aren't germinating, so I'll keep my trap shut and watch this thread with interest. :)
