I started some Cyanella hyacinthoides seed received the the BX 352 - seed started last November and a pot placed on the cool 52-54F basement floor germinated quite well.  a second pot started at the same time in a warmer location 55F-72F with a baggie over top to keep up the moisture had much poor germ. rate. so i placed both pots on the floor in a tray of damp sand with the cyclamen. 
the Cyanella  seedlings have since languished and attracted aphids.

does anyone have any experience growing Cyanella successfully from seed ?

do these need warm root conditions once they have germinated?

Mary Sue mentioned these these grow in areas of South Africa that would get quite warm in summer.

Thank you
