1x seed packet containing 10x Pancratium canariense seeds.
I first saw Pancratium canariense growing in very rocky, hot and dry conditions on the Southern coast of Tenerife. It was remarkable to see such a delicate and beautiful flower appear from the dusty landscape, and it made a lasting impression. I am delighted to offer seeds of this wonderful plant.
Pancratium canariense is not winter hardy in the UK and will need frost free conditions. Growing on a typical Mediterranean bulb cycle, it is summer dormant and will start into growth in the autumn. The pure white and highly fragrent flowers are produced from late autumn through to early winter.
Seeds germinate easily in a very well drained compost mix.

These seeds have been collected from plants here growing in the open garden, and consequently are open pollinated (ie, hybridisation cannot be ruled out). However, no other Arisaema are grown in close proximity to these plants, so cross pollination seems unlikely.

1x seed packet containing 10 seeds of Zantedeschia jucunda.
Zantedeschia jucunda, commonly known as the 'Yellow Arum Lily', is a superb species of Arum Lily from the Sekhukuneland mountains in the North East of South Africa. The true species is not common - this plant was originally introduced into cultivation by the late Rod and Rachel Saunders of Silverhill Seeds of South Africa.
Making bright yellow urn-shaped flowers, this is an especially beautiful Arum Lily. Fully hardy in an unheated greenhouse, we have not tested it outside unprotected yet, however, it should be hardy in a normal UK winter provided that the soil is not too wet for the colder months.
Zantedeschia jucunda seeds germinate readily - soak the seeds for 24 hours and sow into a regular seed potting mix. Gentle bottom heat aids germination.
