Tell me what you know about growing amaryllis from seed?
It takes a long time for them to bloom. Like four or five years. When they first come up, they look like a small sprig of St. Augustine grass. The only good reason to grow amaryllis from seed is if you want to cross-pollinate two different varities to produce a new type of flower. Otherwise buy the bulbs of your choice and enjoy them next year instead of in 2012.
