Dear All,

world, to be shared. If you are interested in obtaining some of them, please
email me PRIVATELY at <dells@voicenet.com>. Include "BX 88" in the subject
line. Specify the NUMBERS of the items which you would like; do not specify
quantities. It is a good idea to include your snail mail address too, in
case I don't already have it. Availability is based on a first come, first
served system.
When you receive your seeds/bulbs you will find, included with them, a
statement of how much money (cash or check) you should send the PBS
treasurer to defray our costs for packing and first-class postage.
Some of you are members of the PBS discussion forum but not members of
the Pacific Bulb Society. THIS BX OFFERING IS AVAILABLE ONLY TO MEMBERS OF
THE PBS. Consider joining the PBS so that you can take advantage of future
offers such as this. Go to our website: <http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/> . Or

If you would like to donate seeds or bulbs/corms to the PBS, please send
CLEAN, clearly labeled material to: Dell Sherk, PO Box 224, Holicong, PA,

From Diana Chapman:
10. Seed of Scoliopus bigelovii:
Seeds should not be allowed to dry out, but also should not be kept wet.
They can be sown now in a well-drained medium that is high in humus. Seeds
should be covered with 1/2-1/4" potting medium or grit. Keep in a cool
shaded place until Fall, then start watering in about October to November.
Keep frost-free. Alternately, they can be stored in very slightly damp
vermiculite until fall, then sown as directed. They usually germinate
promptly as temperatures drop.
From Dell Sherk:
11. Seed of Eucomis comosa hybrids, mixed.
Thank you Alberto and Diana !!
Best wishes,
Dell
