Lycoris Chinensis

Fred:

I will start offering them again next spring. Still no chinensis bloom
here, though. The only ones really doing much are the L. sprengeri. The
L. longituba were just a tad ahead here. I'm still not getting bloom of
a fully recovered transplanting, and it's been two seasons. With this
particular mass transplanting, I dug bulbs with remnant roots, placed in
5 gallon buckets of water, on one day (September-ish, 2004), then
transplanted to the new location the next day. Should have been very
little stress (relatively speaking). I'm happy to see the Lycoris blooms
that I am seeing and feel really confident about availability next spring.
