One of those ads popped up today from e-Bay telling me about a beautiful, blue-flowered lily that somebody wanted to sell. It sounded pretty good but no Latin name for the species was provided. A little work later, I narrowed it down to possibly Ixiolirion tataricum. The epithet seems to indicate it comes form central Asia. For this area, with a nearly frostless climate, that might not be a good choice. I looked it up in the Wiki and became more or less convinced that I had the right name. The Wiki did not indicate in which climate zones the bulbs would be suited. I'm sure somebody among us grows the attractive bulb. Would it grow here? Andrew San Diego
