Ken,

I suspect it gets the occasional summer thunderstorm in its natural habitat
also. I had one once planted with some crinum that got watered weekly thruout
the summer. It grew great but never flowered. Until the year I let those
crinums go dry. Then it came just fine. One or the other I guess!

It thrives in old gardens inTasmania, but I am not sure about the amount of
summer rainfall there

Maybe Jim Lykos can give us the final word on this...

Best wishes,
