Hi to all you Expert Amaryllis Growers! I have a few unnamed Amaryllis in pots in my screened pool enclosure .... may be a couple more in the flower beds somewhere too. Anyway, this one bloomed a month or so ago and I don't even remember what color it was ... but I think it was maybe picotee. Anyhow, I noticed a couple of weeks ago a seed pod and today saw that it was bursting open ... and has seeds showing. Should I plant these and if so do they germinate easily? Or would I be wasting my time trying to get new baby Amaryllis from seeds? Love these plants, don't know why I never save name tags! Here's a(not great) photo I just went out and took of this seed pod with the black seeds showing:
