In prior years, I had at maximum two pods ripening. This year I have thirteen (give or take a couple). So far, no pod that has ripened appears to have produced infertile seeds, as in the year that I crossed Appleblossom and Gervase.
It's going to be hard to keep them all straight! As an aide memoire, I put tags on all the pod stems, indicating pod and pollen parents. I also took photos of all the parents. So I can do photojournals of all the classes. This will be of particular interest to
pondhopper and
halfmoon_mollie, who will be playing along at home with their own little hippeastrum factories, once I've sent the seeds.

I think I may have a fertile pod with that early bloomer from the Class of 2013 as pollen parent, but it's awfully small.
