I love the form of Nomocharis, but the spots, not so much. Pardanthina is yet another animal. Haven't decided if I like that one or not.
I have two or three Nomocharis aperta or forrestii seedlings. They just languish here. Too hot in the summer. (This Friday and Saturday it's suppose to get to 90F already!) Actually, last fall I was going to give them to a friend who lives in northern Wisconsin (it's colder up there, but the ground stays warmer due to lake effect snowfall). But when he visited me, I couldn't find them among all my pots!
But I saw them this spring, so I didn't lose them.
Both the SRGC and NARGS don't know enough or don't have time enough to sort out viable lily, frit, or nomocharis seed. Sometimes the donor will candle them first, but usually I am lucky if I get one or two good looking seeds in a packet. But the few I have came from them (!)
I'm not sure what's going to happen with the SRGC seed ex this year. I usually donate and order seed. Remember, they are not part of the EU anymore, so those new restrictions don't apply, I don't think.
