Brunsvigia josephinae in bloom

5th year of bloom for this 15-year old bulb from seed.  It seems fewer florets this year than last.  Also, 2 of its sibling bulbs which bloomed for the first time last year seem to be sitting 2009 out.  We've had a very dry year and I've provided no additional H2O.  A 4th sibling bulb is sending up its first scape this year.  Several other siblings have yet to bloom.
