Dear members,
 
Several of us who have gathered seeds of amarcrinum (probably Fred
Howard) here in Central Texas have wondered about their germination
capability.  The seeds are round and plump, black through pearly white
or light pink.  When held up to the light there is no darker mass
anywhere in the seed.  Are these "duds" or can they actually sprout?
 
What do seeds of actual Amaryllis belladonna look like?
