Lycoris seedlings

Last year I got some Lycoris seeds from the seed exchange, and ever
curious, knocked open their pots today to see how they are doing. I
can report one pot is dead--empty seeds, shells, really, and no sign
of roots or bulbs. The other two are growing nicely. I tucked them
back in carefully, and can report that the seeds in pots came through
10F last winter, outside, wet, frozen, etc. L. longituba and a hybrid
mix both had surviving new bulbs. L. chinensis did not survive.
I'd like to know what potting mixes are used by more experienced
Lycoris growers.
Thanks,
Kathleen
