So is it worth a shot to apply Sprekelia pollen onto Rhodophiala?
Hmmmm.... intriguing. I was hoping to replicate some crosses that have
already been done. I'm really disappointed Google isn't finding me any
photos.

Google tells me Rhodophiala has not been hybridized with Hippeastrum, but
it has been crossed with Habranthus. Does anyone know of photos of this
cross?

Dave Lehmiller produced all kinds of intergeneric crosses between
Habranthus, Zephyranthes, Sprekelia, Hippeastrum, and Rhodophiala,
including several very striking tri-generic crosses. He has retired from
growing Crinum and these other species and sold or turned over almost all
of his stock to people like Herb Kelly. I saw some of this stock sold at
very high prices (in the hundreds of dollars per bulb) right before the IBS
went out of business.
