Calochortus

I am ready to give up on trying to grow Calochortus from seed.

In the past 8 years I have sown 61 packets of seed from various exchanges,  39 of them germinated.

The pots have been kept in my cool greenhouse - unheated, but frost-free in winter and well-ventilated so not very hot in summer.

I did not keep track of how many showed green leaves and for how many years.

However there have been no recent leaves.  Today I dumped all the pots out to  check for bulbs, and there were none at all.

Is there something I’ve done wrong, or neglected to do?
