Lycoris seed production? Intergeneric hybrids?

Dear Ken,
There are supposed crosses x Hippeastrum, Sprekelia even
Clivia, but I am doubtful. There are lots of intrageneric crosses
with the fertile species. Diploid Lycoris species are self fertile,
too.

Kelly- your link that shows a supposed cross looks a lot like
another picture on the same page of a "collared Amarylllis
belladonna". Something mixed up here?

It is very common for Lycoris carpels to swell after
blooming, but the resulting 'pods' are hollow and without sed of any
sort.

BUT 'things happen' ... Good luck. Jim W.
