I had some A. belladonna bloom in containers this year, but they tended to bloom earlier than those in the ground. I've attached a link to a bad picture of a bloomed out A. belladonna in the back and a A. belladonna cross that came from our member dba The Bulb Baron. Both were grown in full sun, but our summers tend to be very mild. Both have bloomed last year as well. http://flickr.com/photos/69317676@N08/… Randy Monterey Bay Area California -- * * A long habit of not thinking a thing wrong gives it a superficial appearance of being right. - Thomas Paine --- * *
