Hello All,

I just wanted to know if any body else in the other parts of the U.S. (zones
7, 6 and 5) have had any luck with the hybrids of Nerine sarnienses. I was
poking around in the garden and I noticed that the Nerine I planted last
year not only survived but are in the process of sending up spikes.

I have had Nerine bowdenii for many years without any problems, except for
it's notorious habit of blooming quite late and sometimes being nipped by an
early frost.

I'm quite curious what color these will be and also to hear if any one else
has experienced this rather beautiful late season charmer in their "colder"
gardens.

Warm Regards,
Fred Biasella
