I think that Fritillaria have bulbs not corms? most (including affinis, pudica and camschatensis) want to grow during the non frozen periods of winter and most dessicate very easily when stored out of soil. 64 F sounds rather warm for storage and if at all damp at this temperature I would expect them to grow roots or else go mouldy. Bulbs certainly can be stored for 18 months and still be viable because I have done it, though not with Fritillaria. I would suggest sand rather than wood shavings and to keep them cooler -perhaps around 50 F Peter (UK) On Mon, Sep 3, 2012 at 6:06 AM, Richard <richrd@nas.com> wrote: > Holding Fritillaria corms ? > > F. affinis, pudica and camschatcensis > Currently, I'm holding in moistened wood shavings at 60 - 64 degrees F. > Can I hold them under these conditions until early spring (April) ? > Suggestions? >
