Xeronema callistemon (WE?) > I haven't grown this, although I know it is evergreen. However, this is very freshly harvested seed from Terry Hatch in New Zealand where it is late summer. I was told to sow it immediately in very gritty soil, and to protect it from snails and slugs that would decimate the seedlings. --Lee Poulsen Pasadena area, California, USDA Zone 9-10
