I've found that Chasmanthes are the easiest to grow and very welcomed in my garden in winter when not much else is blooming, They multiply enough to divide everyother year, so I can share them with BX. Ann Marie, so calif

thanks for the hint! And, not to advertise, but mine came from Lauw de
Jaeger. They look to increase quite quickly, as well, forming clumps from
the underground rhizome. For Summer shade with Winter sun, they seem to be
ideal. Don't you just love being successful with something...anything!

Hi Jamie,
Jamie, try sucking the flowers when they open, they're superb, much

sweeter

than clover. I look forward to sampling them every year.

In case anyone is looking at obtaining these because of you're
recommendation, the best quality bulbs I've ever seen in Europe have come
from Lauw de Jager. (Sorry Mary Sue, not an advertisement, but a fact).

Best Wishes,
Dave
