Could there have been a typo on the packet? Could it have been 221 instead of 227? Do you remember what year you bought the seeds? I’ve just looked through my stack of catalogues. The 227s and 228s were all some species of Bellevalia. Some sound exciting: “penetrating turquoise-blue”, “electric ultramarine" I found only one 227 900, in August 2003 - B longipes . A dozen species were offered that year. In 2008 and 2009, B longipes from a different collector was numbered 227 909 Diane Whitehead _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net http://lists.pacificbulbsociety.net/cgi-bin/…
