[pbs] Hippeastrum Cultivar & Seed Exchange

I'm looking for other Amaryllis enthusiasts who are interested swapping
varieties from their collections...and/or seeds that they've hybridized
themselves.

Seeing the PBS photos of native Hippeastrum varieties and reading about
their indigenous habitats really peaked my interest.

I had immediate success with growing from seeds, so now whenever bulbs from
my commercially grown/bought collection flower, I always cross-pollinate.

Unfortunately I haven't been hybridizing long enough for any of my cultivars
to have produced flowers...yet.
