Dear Friends, Jim S got me curious so I went to the web and found a bit more info and pix. The first is from Jim's own garden http://shieldsgardens.com/Blogs/Garden/… and a couple of hybrids involving this species: 'Peyton's Place' http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… 'Strictly Feminine' http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… Are either of these hardy ? Jim S. have you tried these? Best Jim W. -- Dr. James W. Waddick 8871 NW Brostrom Rd. Kansas City Missouri 64152-2711 USA Ph. 816-746-1949 Zone 5 Record low -23F Summer 100F +
