Darren: You could probably get seeds through the PBS seed exchange of L. formosanum. I know that here in Texas every seed that hits the ground comes up - they can be flowering inside one year's time. Blooming time for these lilies hasn't arrived yet. Cynthia W. Mueller College Station, TX >>> darrensage100@hotmail.com 05/13/05 3:31 PM >>> Thank you for the advice. Anybody know anyone supplying seeds/bulbs that I can get into Mexico?
