Cyrtanthus herrei

Diana I wish I had a secret formula. While I have several plants they don’t seem to bloom for me the same year. Here is the bloom in October 2021. I assumed I needed a flower from another plant to pollinate it. So I didn’t try. Nature just did it’s job.

Ken, could you take us one step back and describe your method of pollination? I am so impressed by your seed. Oh and envious too as my attempt at pollinating by paintbrush failed.

Paul the seedling is mine. David had to send the picture because I did not send a jpeg picture file.
The seeds were planted on the soil surface. I added sand after germination.
