I have grown these with 100% germination using rockwool which you can buy at your local hydroponics store. [HYPERLINK@www.amazon.com]
I prefer this way for I never get rot or fungus gnats. It also requires no work! Once it is done and enclosed in an airtight plastic bag, you do not have to worry about it for a couple months. No watering needed! I put the bags under lights. Just do not put the bags in sunlight as that can steam the contents.

I wonder if those big fat red seeds will turn out so red flowered!!

Here is a thread I talked about this method. http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/817293/?hl=

Here are photos using clivia seeds. I had no photos of amaryllis seeds though I have used the same medium with amaryllis seeds with perfect results.
