My Rhodophiala bifida are sprouting leaves now, but have not made flowers. Sometimes in the past they have made flowers after the leaves so I can still hope. I don't know why no flowers this year; they are in the bed with the okra and I watered regularly. My R. b. are self-sterile. Once I put R. b. pollen on a Calostemma purpurea flower, which produced a fruit. A bird took it. They haven't flowered together since that year. The rest of you should try it. Can't recall whether I've written this before: A friend of mine born in eastern Arkansas in the 1920s told me about a small hardy red amaryllis that grew in his home town. He is a long-time farmer and gardener who has no formal botany but is very observant. Their name in Arkansas is Johnny-jump-up. His description matched Rhodophiala bifida. This is an unusual common name; in English this name usually refers to small-flowered Viola like V. tricolor. No Amaryllis flowers, nor leaves yet. Leo Martin Phoenix Arizona USA
