Hi Nick, The photo of your flower looks just like the H. striatum that I donated. As a matter of fact, it comes from the same accession. The one pictured on the wiki ( http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/…) is the mother plant. It's quite a small flower, so I don't think it's puniceum. I do have doubts myself regarding the identities of H. striatum vs. H. petiolatum. It does make a profusion of bulblets. And as Alberto pointed out, if planted raised, they make a lot more bulbils. It's not a bad thing if you like sharing, such as with the BX. I grew mine from seeds, and I can't remember if the bulbs were naturally growing above the ground. The best test is to see if they grew above the ground is to start from seeds. Happy growing, Nhu On Sat, Jan 10, 2015 at 9:13 AM, Nicholas plummer <nickplummer@gmail.com> wrote: > Can anyone help me confirm IDs on some Hippeastrum blooming in my > greenhouse? > > http://s1279.photobucket.com/user/myrmecodia/… >
