Dear all To newcomers, before you start going crazy, it must be understood that we are all growing hundreds and hundreds of bulbs from many different habitats and watering requirements and information must necessarily be precise as to each kind. Often to each species as, there are very many genera in which some species are warm season growers and others cool season growers (like Alstroemeria, Calydorea, Androcymbium, Rhodophiala, Iris, Moraea, Gladiolus, Hippeastrum, etc., etc.). So to avoid failure, one must obtain information that is as much detailed as possible. Regards, Alberto
