Definitely save some pollen to try crossing your zephyranthes as both the pod and pollen parent.

I have seen the $100 one at PDN. I should still have some sprecklia howardii (i hope). They should sprout in the next month and maybe some rainlilies will be in bloom. I have a hardy hippeastrum in the garden blooming so i should save some pollen as well.
