what organizations with seed banks are you referring to ?

Dick

I am looking for a clivia organization  I have not had any experience with them. My seed problem was with CRFG. They have a seed bank problem & are supposed to be straightening it out, but it has been a year of past orders and no seeds. I am supposed to get them & they are working on it, but I have paid a lot of money for seeds that should be planted fresh.

there are several groups you should look into
in Calif check out NACS, in March they will have a convention http://www.northamericancliviasociety.org/home.php
& you should join the yahoo groups
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/clivialovers/ and http://groups.yahoo.com/group/clivia-enthusiast/

Thanks, Dick  I have contacted NACS & appreciate your also suggesting them. I will also check out the yahoo group. By the way, if you know of any amaryllis society, I would appreciate that information. There is new forum here, but I am also looking for an amaryllis seed bank also.

A great source of absolutely fresh seed is Silver Hill seeds in south Africa. They are not real cheap but I think are reasonable. I have paid up to $4 for the rarest sorts . They keep you on a list and as soon as they get a crop of seeds in , they will email you right away. I keep my credit card details on file with them so when they have something I want, I just send them a list and tell 'em ' You know where to send them". They also have hundreds of indigenous seeds in their catalog which you can order the regular way. Search on google.
