Hi Jamie: These fleshy seed amaryllids of African origin (Amaryllis, Cybistetes, Brunsvigia, Nerines, Strumaria, Hessea, Haemanthus, etc,) give better results if their seed is only half buried. As you know the main ingredient for seed germination is oxygen. As for the Brunsvigias, they are winter growers therefore excess heat will send them into dormancy. You can have them growing without any dormancy at first to advantage. I hope you are very young for they will take eons to flower in Germany! All the best for now Alberto _________________________________________________________________ Charla con tus amigos en lĂnea mediante MSN Messenger: http://messenger.yupimsn.com/
