Blooming in the Greenhouse

Hi all,

Starting to bloom in the greenhouse are my second- or third-season
Nerine: bowdenii, humilis, and undulata. Only one bowdenii scape is up so
far, and one undulata; but the whole potful of humilis are sending up scapes.

This is the first time the humilis have ever bloomed for me, so this is
very satisfyling. The sarniensis hybrids finished several weeks ago. The
"first season" of nerines here is in July and August, when filifolia,
krigei, laticoma, filamentosa, and angulata/angustifolia/appendiculata bloom.
