Nice, Doug.  Mine don't seed, but I only have the one clone.  I love the autumn flowers on this species! 8)

Those are really nice Doug. Do you have the bulbs in a hot place? and what will you do with the seeds? ;D

Thanks eveyone for your comments but mother nature has done all the work for me. I use a sandy mix kept moist, in a sunny position with over head frost protection. The seed will be available soon.
My Favourate, Arum purpureospathum here from last year had such a good flowering, I had to share.

Just started to bloom Arum pictum. It is first time with me and I'm afraid that last, too. Afraid that it will not be hardy here even under cover.

Janis,
I grow it since many years in the garden, without any protection, and we had some -12°C for serveral days !
It was flowering again last week, like every year, so,... hope  ;D
