Dear Ruth: Everyone is very glad to have you join the group, and we would all hope one would not feel like they cannot contribute to the list based on level of expertise. We hope you enjoy the list whether lurking or discussing, and thank you for sharing your greetings with us. Mr. Kelly M.

At present, I'm growing bulbs and other perennials in North Carolina in the Piedmont area. Have mostly shade garden, so drool longingly over full sun bulbs, and even try growing some in sheer defiance. Allium, Arisaema, Amorphophallus, Anemone, Arum, Fritillaria, Hymenocallis, Iris, Lilium, and Zephyranthus among others, so far. > > Will probably spend most of my time lurking, since I'm not a bulb expert, but the site seems very interesting. > > Ruth Bierhoff, Zone 7-8 (who knows, at this point) > _______________________________________________ > pbs mailing list > pbs@lists.ibiblio.org > http://www.pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/ > >
