Hi Kathleen, I just got some as well and I planted them in mix of ProMix potting soil, small fir bark, granite chips and sand. I have them growing under lights with my African Violets and their cousins in my heated front (southern exposed) porch. The four seeds I received were potted up, watered and a clear plastic dome was placed over the seeds until they sprouted. They have all sprouted and the leaves are about 2" to 3" long and grass like and a small bulb is beginning to form at the soil level. So far so good, but I'll let you know what happens from this point on. Warm Regards, Fred Biasella Cambridge (Boston) MA ....and boy is it COLD!!!!!!!!!!!!! -----Original Message----- From: pbs-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org [mailto:pbs-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org] On Behalf Of Kathleen Sayce Sent: Friday, January 16, 2009 8:31 PM To: pbs@lists.ibiblio.org Subject: [pbs] Pancratium maritimum Having just gotten some Pancratium maritimum seed from the PBS BX, I'd like to hear from members who are familiar with this species about the seed germinating and bulb growing conditions that have worked for them.
