>Harold, ,what about the cultural cares for C. haemanthoides? soil, >temperatures, dry, growing season, etc... Many thanks Dear HArold, Thanks for this info, but more important do you ever get viable seed from this item? And any available? My C. vansonii both white and 'pink' are both thriving, but I'd appreciate some cultural comments and advice here to make them thrive more. Thanks Jim W. -- Dr. James W. Waddick 8871 NW Brostrom Rd.
