Dear Don & All, Thanks for posting Don. We look forward to hearing about your experiences again, both at the San Francisco Botancial Garden and your bulb collection in Richmond. Did you plant the F. densepunctulata in the ground where it froze or was it out in a container? It sounds like Ferraria may grow best in Florida and southern California. Our treasurer, Jennifer Hildebrand, put a picture on the wiki of F. densepunctulata on the wiki. Jen, if you are reading this, I'd be curious to know if you were able to grow and flower it on your light table during your time in Nebraska. Doug Westfall, if you are reading, do you like Lee, have good luck growing and flowering these in containers in Southern California? I suspect some of our Australian members do well with Ferraria too. I have some pictures from an old image list from Dirk Wallace of some stunning specimens of F. densepunctulata so I know he is successful. Mary Sue
