Brunsvigia gregaria (100 seeds)

Family: Amaryllidaceae

The flowers appear in autumn before the leaves and are a light pink color with a center green stripe. The leaves are flat.

Sowing instructions: Sow seeds in deep seed trays in a very well-drained, sandy medium to which some fine compost is added. Press lightly into the soil, so that the top of the seed remains visible. Water well once and then again only after the first leaves appear. After that, water well once every two to three weeks.
