Hi, Those people wanting to see Jane's pictures need to look here instead of the url she listed: http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… It looks like her hybrids are from the plant called Fritillaria grayana, aka. Fritillaria roderickii, also known as Fritillaria biflora var. biflora in the Jepson Manual although many of us do not think this plant should be lumped with Fritillaria biflora. My Fritillaria biflora blooms much earlier in the year. F. roderickii and F. purdyi do bloom at about the same time. I guess I need to worry about this since we'd really like to reintroduce F. roderickii in the wild where it used to be and I've been growing it from my seed and now have one F. purdyi blooming too and that could be a problem in future. All the ones I have now were grown from seed from bulbs rescued from the wild when the redid the Highway. Mary Sue At 03:14 PM 4/24/05 -0700, you wrote: >Thanks, Arnold.
