I had hoped someone else who has had experience with Barclaya would have
answered it. I have read in several books that Barclaya flowers
self-fertilize even if they don't reach the surface. The seeds, the books
say, should never be stored dry and the young plants should be allowed to
float for a while before they are planted.
Every time I have got a Barclaya tuber I never got anything from it. not a
leaf or a root.
