Is anyone out there growing Albuca humilis in the north in an unprotected garden? I was surprised to find that several pots that I took with me when I moved from NY to MA overwintered outside above the ground (covered with oak leaves). The pots did freeze solid - this I know - and yet the bulbs are fine, and have sent up foliage and, in some cases, flowers. These are from seed collected at Naude's Nek (high altitude), where I'm sure they also freeze, but of course there's more to hardiness than just cold tolerance. These seem like really sturdy little guys - and they're good-looking, too. Anyone? Ellen -- Ellen Hornig 212 Grafton St Shrewsbury MA 01545 508-925-5147
