Lycoris in Maryland & KC
James Waddick (Thu, 01 Sep 2011 09:10:00 PDT)
One of the members of our local rock garden group is a Lycoris
enthusiast. He has obtained plants from all of the usual suspects
(Chen Yi, Brent & Becky, Tony, Jim Waddick and others) and each year
the variety of bloom gets better.

Dear Jim Mc,
Nice pix. Only one seems 'iffy' that's your L. straminea.
Just can't see it close enough to confirm ID. Other wise all good
guesses
Here's some pix taken this season in my garden - all pix are
in vaguely chronological order.

All are named.
Nos 54 and 55 are a very interesting hybrid that looks like a
late blooming sibling to L. squamigera. Very subdued, but quite nice.
As I mentioned earlier here's juts a few of the L. caldwellii going
strong now at the end.
Still Lycoris season in KC. Best Jim W.
