A few alliums flowering here including beesianum, several Colchicums, alpinum, aff stevenii, kotchyi... graecum is long over . A Biarum is in bloom, the Pinellas are more or less over and setting seeds. a Massonia is taking ages to open. My only Lycoris is a new aquisition of radiata and it is coming up strongly, potted deeply. I shall probably plant it out in the spring. Flowers still on Cyclemans purpurescens,as well as hederifolium, probably cilicium too but I haven't checked yet. Nerine bowdenii is sending up scapes but none yet on N gibsonii though it is looking stronger now, having only just survived a record low here of near -18 C! Peter (UK)
