Geohintonia mexicana is not hard to find. Check the Czech seed sellers for a second chance.

I hope I was in time for the Drimiopsis dolomiticus and Lachenalia patula seeds.

Looks like Mesa Garden will have their list online a bit later in the year:

"We are about halfway through the build of our new website 🎉🎉. This is Big project but we are excited. The website should be available early March. However this approximate, of course this can change. It will be later than usual for us but it will be worth the wait. The new site will have the same website address. It will be an inventory/cart based system. Thus it will be first come first serve. Unfortunately there will still be wait times but you will know exactly what you are getting when you check out."

That's quite late for those that like to sow mesembs and African bulbs in late March...

The Mesemb Study Group has it on its seed list every few years. Maybe next year? And maybe Silverhill seeds will be able to provide some seeds. I had that luck once, many years ago. You might ask them for it, as they might have some too low on stock to mention on the website?

The only two sources that I know of, unless you know some private growers that have seeds of this species and might like a swap with you.

What happened to Silverhill then? There were rumours that the business would be taken over following those tragic events last year, but on the website Rod and Rachel Saunders are still mentioned as the owners. Does anybody know?
