Hello tozi,
Gordon Summerfield has a good list of SA seed and corms. His email is summerfields@telkomsa.net.

Cameron McMaster, and Silver Hill books and seeds, and Dawie Human
My purchases from all three have been very worth while. Also a wide range of SA seeds are offerd on the Pacific Bulb Society Bulb Exchange

PBS offers lots of rare uncommon species as bulbs or seeds for a ridiculously low fee. The essential thing with SA seed is that it is fresh.
African Bulbs offers many species, very cheap.
