Hello , Thank you all who helps to give this plants from the Atacama desert a identity - Rhodophiala bagnoldii . If anyone knows a source...... With best wishes Hans -----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: pbs-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org [mailto:pbs-bounces@lists.ibiblio.org]Im Auftrag von Mary Sue Ittner Gesendet: Freitag, 7. Januar 2005 17:05 An: Pacific Bulb Society Betreff: [pbs] Mystery Image--South American bulb Hi everyone, Hans Joschko sent a number of us an image scanned from a postcard of a group of flowering plants I believe from Chile. I have uploaded the file, but am not going to put the picture on the Mystery Page because I don't have permission from the photographer to use this picture. I am adding it briefly just so people can look at it and give Hans a guess about what it could be and then I will remove it. My guess (and I don't grow many of these) is a Rhodophiala. It looks like am Amaryllid of some kind anyway and the photo is really nice so I can see how it ended up on a postcard. Is that a snake or a stick in the picture? Hopefully some of our South American members will help him with this one or anyone who might be growing this plant. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… Mary Sue _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.ibiblio.org http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php
