Also, if you go to the on-line bulb sellers, they will probably be
willing to share images if you give them credit (it is like free
advertising for them so it ends up being a win-win).

Be sure you tell them it is for a non-profit arboretum

Lycoris squamigera is blooming here in Maryland, both in a neighbor's garden
and in my garden. There has been little rain recently, yet these are big,
robust stems - and, it seems to me, a bit early.

The local temperature got up to 101 degrees F today, and it's been at or
near 100 for three days in a row.

Lycoris squamigera are not in bloom here at my place yet, but 60 miles due
west of here, outside Greencastle, Indiana, I saw a yard full of them in
flower yesterday. By the way, swallowtail butterflies (Papilio glaucus, P.
troilus, and P. philenor) seemed to be nectaring at them.

Here in Westfield, I have a couple laggard Lycoris sanguinea in bloom, and
scapes up on a couple L. sprengeri. I'll check more carefully for other
Lycoris today.

We had about 1 inch of rain yesterday, and the weather cooled down to
practically comfortable.
