my ismene

My Ismene flowers around Christams and is dry by May. It has done this for
5 yrs in a row now and its few selfed-seedlings follow this pattern (but
have not flowered being too young still).

I could never figure out if this is the correct cycle, but it works.
Paramongaia has bitten the dust, all 3 I've had because I could not figure
out their cycles.

I'd recommend drying off the Ismene until late fall.

Good luck!
