Dear Brian, knowing well your climate I would be tempted to "sow" them in some good compost and overwinter in a cold greenhouse, or a frost free window sill, just in case of a bad winter. Here they eventually petered out through comptetion with other plants I think. It got too dry and poor for them no doubt. I have always struggled to keep it going as it needs richer moister soil than I can usually find for it.

Do I "sow" now or spring or store, how, how deep etc. If I had not gone to a meeting last week on Gesneriads, some of which produce numerous propagules, I would not have recognised them for what they are. Found them falling on a pot of Anemones pavonina trying to flower. > I guess these are aerial bulbs? > > Brian Whyer, Buckinghamshire, England, zone ~8 ish > _______________________________________________ > pbs mailing list > pbs@lists.ibiblio.org > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/ > _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.ibiblio.org http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/
