Grown from the BX/SX seed

[Rdevries]

Grown from BX 363 seed (June 2014) as Hippeastrum stylosum. But looks more like a xHippeastrelia.

Rimmer,  I'm pretty sure that Hippe is not stylosum.  You're right about how it looks.

Rimmer, is this the first time it has flowered?  9 years from seed?

[Rdevries]

I have a pot of seedings from last year so i know it has bloomed before 9 yrs

This came as Biarum aff. dispar.

Our Wiki states all Biarum's flower in October.

What gives?

I dunno, but B. carduchorum is in spike in San Francisco right now, as the leaves are collapsing around it.

I wonder if the comment on the wiki about bloom time is regarding plants in their natural habitat where flowering and growth is triggered by a change in temperature and rainfall. The wiki does show photos with seasons and they're not all in fall. I'd like to improve the wiki text.

David:

I found a paper indicting that not all of the Biarum's flower in the fall. 

"Taxonomic Revision of Biarum - [Aroideana 29, 2_36] - Boyce 2006.pdf"

Arnold. Thanks. That is probably enough to fine tune the wording on the wiki.
