I trudged over most of the garden hopefully, but so far nothing bulbous is blooming for the new season, and though white is showing on snowdrop buds (Galanthus), I can't cheat and say they are actually blooming. Schizostylis are carrying on blooming as usual, but they're a holdover from summer. -- Diane Whitehead Victoria, British Columbia, Canada maritime zone 8 cool mediterranean climate (dry summer, rainy winter - 68 cm annually) sandy soil
