hi everybody, thanks for all your replies. well, now i'm somewhat disappointed because it seems that what i received as capensis is actually bracteata, which i already had, so all my bulbs are bracteata (viridiflora). which btw, it is also what it seems to be rand's plant. one of my plants look like it's about to bloom again. last year's blooms blasted (due to being kept too cold?), but they don't seem to have any problems forming new bulbs. tsuh yang __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
