Mark:
There is a silver lining to every cloud and we would love to hear which
lachenalias survived for you. This would give us all new hope for this genus.
We lost power recently and the greenhouse had to be backup heated.
Unfortunately, it was negative 5F outside and one corner area received
inadequate heat.
Some pots of Lachenalia in that corner have turned to mush but others seem
to
have survived. I'll make a note to send you the names of those survivors
from
that terrible night on my veldt.
