Twinscaling Nerine, reluctant Crinum
Tom Mitchell (Mon, 06 Sep 2010 23:03:06 PDT)
Many thanks for all the suggestions and specific advice. I'll give it
a go next year and will try to remember to report the results on this
forum for the curious.
The issue of bulbs taking time to adjust to a different hemisphere is
an intriguing one. I have a few Gladiolus and Ledebouria from the
same source and they all made the transition with aplomb.

We've tried twinscaling nerines and had a high success rate June-
July using
Jeyes fluid dip to kill pathogens then slightly damp vermiculite in an
airtight ziplock bag in the dark ....Four months later bulblets!
