Diana Chapman first wrote Returning from a trip I found my two ten year old Boophane disticha bulbs sending up flower buds. The bulbs are about grapefruit size, and I grow them each individually in very large pots to accommodate their huge roots. And then Leo Martin asked > Congratulations! How large is a very large pot? To which Diana Chapman replied >> The pots are 16" in diameter, and 13" deep, one bulb to a pot. Thank you! I have some B. disticha and B. haemanthoides seedlings. I suspect they don't like being transplanted that often, so before next growing season I'll put them into bigger pots. Anybody on the list have comments on how much to pot up Boophone? Cactus don't like going into pots much bigger than about 10cm / 5 inches larger in diameter. How about amaryllids? Leo Martin Phoenix Arizona USA
