Dear All, I am nearing the anniversary of my first year as Administrator of this list. In honor of that and the 4th of July which in the USA is a time to shoot off fireworks I am presenting instead some "flowerworks". Where I live all fireworks are illegal as they are too dangerous this time of year when the forest is dry. I found these on the wiki: From Lauw de Jager: http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… From Mark McDonough: http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… mix.jpg And new from my husband: http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… And if you want to know about the above picture I have created a Bloomeria page on the wiki that tells all about Bloomeria and shows the progression from buds to blooms: http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… Mary Sue
