Joe: I have heard it rumored that most of the spring foliage Lycoris have difficulty blooming in zone 9. I don't know if it is true or not. Of course, I believe that the zone ranges offered in catalogs are more related to survivability, hardiness, than bloom consistency. Here in zone 6, I have been experiencing about two seasons for recovery of transplanted Lycoris (from dormant trade stock). ConroeJoe@aol.com wrote: >Hi, > >I have Lycoris sprengeri in the yard.
