Default Crinum seed

Has anyone grown Crinums from seed? I'm interested to know how long it is
from seed to flowering - whether it takes a couple of years, half a
lifetime
or one season!

Which variety of Crinum?
I found a reference somewhere that 3-8 years is the typical time to get
something from seed to flower, so it sounds pretty similar to the waiting
time for Cardiocrinums and Amarcrinums (perhaps) .
