hi all

Some queries re bulbs I have recently bought. Have you had sucess with the
following? What conditions do they like and hardy to what zone.

Moraea atropunctata
Gladiolus flanaganii
Oxalis versicolor

My Oxalis versicolor has a forest of 'stems' and one flowering stem full of
flowers. Has the pot got too many tubers/bulbs in it? When do I divide it?

I also bough a potful of Lachenalia versicolor but can find no reference to
it. Have you heard of it? The leaves are red with dark blotches.

thanks for your time
