More Nerine coming

Hi all,

I have two pots of Nerine krigei sending up scapes. These have bloomed
before, and I have old pictures at URL =
http://shieldsgardens.com/amaryllids/nerine.html/

I have several large batches of bulbs of Nerine angulata, but I just now
have the very first scape any of them have produced. I guess they were not
up to blooming size until now. I'm really looking forward to seeing it
bloom. I gather that this species has been sunk into N. angustifolia.

NN. gracilis and rehmannii are in bloom. This is the first bloom of N.
gracilis I've ever seen. The flowers are tiny.

I will post pictures of all these when I get them.

Regards,
Jim Shields
