Nerines- seed sowing

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
