Another that overwintered in the greenhouse. I wasn't expecting them all to germinate!! I bought these at H.Court Show from Plant Heritage seed shop. Got my moneysworth here.

Wow, that'll be a harvest. I know you said these from seed, but have you tried scale propagation, much quicker, but you need a parent bulb to do so.

I've tried scales from my other lilies and sometimes those little leaf bulbils but I thought I'd give these seeds a go. I didn't think it'd be this easy but I believe there's no such thing as green fingers, just right time, right conditions, and mother nature does the rest as she did here.

I find if seeds germinate quickly they survive, those with delayed germination (some Lilies) I tend to forget them, i.e. where I've put the pot and caring for an empty pot for a year or so.
