Seed germination Amaryllis

Post by Muhammad Arif Khan »

I have saved some seeds for some friend who had asked for them. As almost six months had past I test germinate some of them, it is said they should be germinated as soon as possible.
To my surprise the germination was quite good.

I should also try this method on the seeds you have send previously. 1 year back I directly sowed them and got the result although, germination was not so much good but still got the results. they are still present with me (4 of them) and I am hoping that they turn out to be the ones that you have bred.
