For those who are interested in trying various named hybrids, the new
McClure and Zimmerman spring bulb catalog just arrived and on the back
cover this year they are featuring a good number of different clones.
This is the most I've ever seen offered by one company in the U.S. They
are offering the following clones: Alcazar, Bressingham, First Sunrise,
Green Jade, Ice Queen, Little Maid, Nancy's Red, Percy's Pride, Royal
Standard, Shining Sceptre and Vanilla, and claim they're hardy in USDA
zones 5-8. You can also order online at
