Mike that is a awesome flower, I bought 3 bulbs from Easy Grow this year and the spikes are just erupting out the ground this week thus I am waiting with baited breath for as good a show. I put mine out in the garden in a spot that gets no water in the Summer. Regards from Ottoline Yuba City zone 9 were we are also expecting no rain until after Christmas, all the pity _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net http://lists.pacificbulbsociety.net/cgi-bin/… Unsubscribe: <mailto:pbs-unsubscribe@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net>
