Blue Bells Versus Lycoris
James Waddick (Mon, 18 Oct 2010 07:19:56 PDT)

Dear Friends,
I admit to being enchanted by views of the mass display of
English Blue Bells, Hyacinthoides non-scripta,

http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/… and

http://english-country-garden.com/a/i/…

but the three new pix of Lycoris radiata in mass hillsides in Japan

http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/…

give those demure blue bells a serious run for the money.
You do need a good pair of sun glasses, though.

Wow. Best Jim W.
