Hi group,

I added 2 photos of Triteleia grandiflora ssp. howellii, grown from Jane
McGary's bulb offering a few years back. The photos are from 2004, showing a young
inflorescence, but the flower heads were even more beautiful and impressive
this year. This form is an ice blue color. I grow it under a Fringe Tree
(Chionanthus virginicus) using my theory of planting bulbous plants at the base of
deep-rooted shrubs and trees, in circles around the tree that I call "tree
rings". This Trit bloomed in June.
