Ixia & Call for growing info

Dear Bill and All,
Re: Bill's question about why I recommended Ixia dubia over I. maculata on
my recommendations to UC/D greenhouse. I can't recall why I chose one over
the other, especially since John Bryan(JB) had a photo in 'Bulbs' of I.
maculata, but not I. dubia. In general, I was "light" on Ixia selections
because JB noted they were not considered frost hardy. Please note, I.
maculata was on my personal list. Ernesto and I frequently share
seeds. Clever this.

Bill, this does not relieve you of sending me info on Massonia. I would
appeciation getting growing information for:
Daubenya, Gethyllis, Hessea, Massonia and Strumeria species.
