Nerine again

Hi All,
Nerine bowdenii is native to the summer rainfall areas of eastern South
Africa, so it's natural cycle is to grow in summer. In practice, my bulbs
of bowdenii in pots make it a short winter.
I've not seen any summer growing Nerine hybrids that looked anything like
the sarniensis hybrids.
Regards,
Jim Shields
