Lycoris Season continues

My lycoris have all bloomed more than usual (wettest months in many years in
Illinois), and are developing seed pods-- showing on all including
squamigera x any of the following: aurea v. surgens; sanguinea; self;
longituba; radiata; incarnata and reciprocals of each . Since I didn't
expect any to "take"-- I didn't label any (Stupid) . WiIl try to keep
them separate when I go for germination, later.

The observations about extra water in summer being good for the genus is
something I can enthusiastically endorse. It's the best bloom I've had and
the best fruiting results seen from pollination. Viabilty is, of course,
not known yet.
