Nerine Krigei

apparently self-fertile and incredibly generously setting seeds for me (over 50 seeds from one scape).  Just hope they are fertile too ...
seeds are a bit angular - not so easy to see on the pic I made this morning.

scale is in centimeter
Bulboholic, but with moderation.

The following pix of Crocus seed are resized  (you'll see an "r" after the name in the file) from photos sent by Wim Boens - these are photos of seeds  not already shown in this seed photo record.
Later, the photos of seed included in this record ( many by Tony Goode) but not with Wim's Crocus Group photos, will be added to that collection and saved  in a new place for the Croconuts  :)

So, the first five pix - click on the picture to enlarge them

Crocus albiflorus
C. asumaniae
C. biflorus subsp. melantherus
C. biflorus subsp. punctatus
C. boryi
