Mexico and Albuca
Jane Sargent (Fri, 22 Apr 2016 11:43:23 PDT)
My name is Jane Sargent, and I am not at all a bulb expert. I have two
gardens, one in zone 5 Massachusetts and one in southern Mexico, at
least zone 10 and akaline. I am hoping to find contact information for
good plant sources in Mexico, because sending plants from here involves
all kinds of paperwork. I want these plants for my Mexican garden, not
my Massachusetts one. Any help would be appreciated.
My second question concerns 3 Albuca spiralis plants growing on the
windowsill in Massachusetts. They flowered, and afterwards, to my
amazement, began sending up lots of new little twisty tentacles instead
of going dormant. They are beginning to look like the spawn of
Chthulhu. Do I continue to water them? Fertilize them, and if so, with
what? Does anyone know what pollinates their flowers in nature? And will
they go dormant sometime?
Clueless,
Jane
