Hi, seeds received, payment sent. Many thanks.

Carlos

Ok, Uli, you told me about the narcissus fly...

I know more or less what glaucophyllum and platypetalum are, or at least what Regis Bastian says they are. But I agree that none of them is aulicum.

Hi, I know it's not been a long time since the seeds were distributed, but has anyone got flowers on these, or has plants?

23 13 Hippeastrum correiense syn. Hippeastrum aulicum var. glaucophyllum 'Luna' Mauro Peixoto

SX11-560. Hippeastrum aulicum var. glaucophyllum – Luna – PBS

And any of these aulicum from SX11:

391. Hippeastrum aulicum - Corupá
557. Hippeastrum aulicum – Benedito Novo
558. Hippeastrum aulicum – Quiririm
559. Hippeastrum aulicum – Parati-Cunha 
561. Hippeastrum aulicum – Testa do Macaco
562. Hippeastrum aulicum – Biritiba

Thanks!!

Hi, I am trying to get wild Spanish / Portuguese bulbocodium, and bulbocodium from the Ligurian Alps, which should be the type locality (Linnaeus said 'Italian Alps', but the plant does not occur in the true Alps, like around Milan, Turin, etc, it's too cold).

Quote from: Carlos on April 02, 2024, 10:23:49 PMHi, I am not really on Albuca, but this one is quite attractive. It does not seem to produce the dozens of bulbils seen on other species, does it?  Surely it is not spiralis?

I'd be willing to swap a few seeds. I also have dozens of bulbils of another unidentified species that I posted last year.

Hi Carlos, if I get seed I'm happy to mail some to you. I bought these as 20mm+ bulbs. I've had one for a few years, and added 3 more last couple years. I guess I don't know for sure, but haven't seen signs of bulbils yet.

Thanks!!

Some 'cormous' or 'pseudobulbous' plants seen in the wild yesterday

Biarum dispar


Himantoglossum robertianum 



Orchis olbiensis (mascula subsp. olbiensis for some)



And March is over.

Muscari atlanticum, Eastern Spain. POWO accepts it!

HI, it is Oncostema (was Scilla) peruviana, not from Peru but from the Western Mediterraneand and adjacent Atlantic coast.

Hi.

What I can tell is that I was about to place an order of over $300 a month ago and she never confirmed.

Speaking of Hippeastrum, I've been told that some of the bulbs she offers as botanical species turn out to be hybrids. 

Regarding the rest, people seem to be very happy.

Narcissus bulbocodium subsp quintanilhae, A lot was written on it by Dr. Abílio Fernandes, but I still don't understand what it is.

Asphodelus ayardii. I finally found a good stand only a 10 min drive and 10 min walk from home, and we got rain, so they will set good seed.

Also fistulosus and cerasiferus in the area, they don't seem to hybridize. The flowers of ayardii stay open a little longer than those of fistulosus, it was about 17:20 and all fistulosus were closed.
