Howdy All, Is anyone familiar with a variegated Hymenocallis? A friend has offered me a bulb, but I have never heard of one before. I know that there are a number of us here on the PBS who collect Hymenocallis so I figured you'd be the peoples to ask <Grin> Any differences in cultivation requirements or frost tolerance etc? My current Ismene xFestalis (they're often called Hymenocallis here, so I am wondering whether my friends plant may be actually a variegated Ismene?) grow in the ground here, plus I have a couple of species Hymenocallis and a hybrid or two. So far they have lived through winters here in pots, but I'm expecting them to do much better now they have the insulation of the ground. Here's hoping <grin>. I do have a glasshouse if necessary and I am rather partial to variegated plants. So is her plant likely to be what she says it is, or has she mixed up names completely? Thanks in anticipation.
