Lynn,
One thing I have found is that you want to use STERILE potting media here in Oregon as the damn moss will grow quickly on anything else. Even with the sterile it's a race between getting the seedlings germinated and being overrun by the moss. Putting a VERY thin layer of fine sand over the top helps too. On the daffodil pots I put gravel but that is too coarse for the semp seedlings.
My 'Red Lion' was one of the winter losses. it sent up a very late bloomstalk on one rosette and then the whole clump just went to MUSH when the cold hit. I'm wondering if it doesn't have 'Commander Hay' somewhere in back of it. It was one that did this for me in MA on a regular basis. Finally gave up on it!
Nothing has appeared in the pot of 'Weirdo' X 'Unicorn' seed either. The seed looked sort of "off-colored" when I harvested it. Anyway have fingers and toes crossed for both of us that we'll get some seedlings from these oddball matings!
