Dear All:

I think this has been discussed before, but I have the beautiful "Hathor" in
bloom now.  Susan Hayek has kindly offered to upload a picture to the
mystery bulbs section of the wiki.  I received my named  X amarystites,
indicating a cross between A. belladonna and Cybisitetes.  I have also read
that it is a selection of A. belladonna, and not a hybrid, as well as that
it is a hybrid between A. belladonna and Brunsvigia.  Can anyone clear this
up?  The bulbs bear no resemblance to A. belladonna bulbs.  They are
completely spherical and have a thin papery tunic - not at all like the
tunic of A. belladonna.

P.S.  I don't have any to spare.
