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!

Two years, and once you have them you need never do them again as they are
invasive clumps and you can get as many bulbs as you like off them. but they
do need to reach a certain size to flower so keep them growing.
