Dell, thank you.
On "A review of the Southern African Species of Cyrtanthus", by Reid, I have read about the germination of the seeds in water with success. Did you or anyone experimented this method?
Ciao.

Dear Alberto,

Yes, contrary to myth, cyrtanthus and other papery amaryllid seed can remain
viable for a year or more, particularly if refrigerated. Germination
percentage will probably be reduced.

Regards,
Dell
