Hi Hanks
Tanks, and yes, I'm interested.
It's easy to grow them from seed? I ask you this because I've never got seeds of my Zephyranthes (the normal one - pink).

Hi Cris ,

OK , please send me a remember in next year summer for this seeds .
Have you seen my seed offer ? there are listet some zephyranthes seeds .....I'm shure we will find a way for swap ::)
Zephyranthes  + Habranthus are easy from seeds -mostly flowering after 2 -3 years !
I know this Zephyranthes pink without seeds -I grow it from different sources ....but they make all no seeds -last year I made a cross with a other species : this works !

Hi Hans,

I'll send you a email to remember you, if I remember :)
Of course i'll remember, it's such a beatiful plant.

The flowers in the pic you've posted are just like mines.

I may consider myself as a curious, I love to cultivate the bulbous plants, but each time I read your posts, I'm certain that I do not know anything about it. There are so many names, varietys, ways of cultivation, an so on...
But I'm learning a bit each day ;D

Hi Hans

You're very wright when you said: "We must all learn .....every day - there is no end !
But - in this days with PC and internet is it soooo much easier to get informations ,to get contacts and new plants and seeds ...."
, it's just since I have pc with internet that I've learned a lot. Here in Portugal there are not books about these, I've never found them, I live a bit away of Lisbon and I don't like very much to go there (much stress, much polution), so it has been on the net, especialy on another forum that I've learned a lot. I think forums teach us much more, the exchanges of experiences within forumists, are, to me, much more rich.
And a few weeks ago I took courage and registered here, a great forum, where I'm already learn a lot about these wonderfull plants.
