Sometimes they flower better with a tight root run.

I'd re-pot only with a small increase in diameter.

If you haven't done so already please send me privately  your preferred contact email address.

Arnold140@verizon.net

The shipment should be here in USA with 10 days to two weeks.

I will notify all those who participated about the amount due for bulbs, shipment to US, phyto documentation and transport form the receiving station in Atlanta to Bob Lauf in TN.

You will receive a note with the amount due when the bulbs are sent to you by Bridget, our BX Director.

A mysterious appearance.

Ornithogalum magnum

 Merwilla plumbea
Zephranthes drummondii

Ledebouria ovalifolia
Ledebouria 'Huntsdrift'

All those who are the list  below of Bulbs ordered from the South African Bulb Company please email me at :

Arnold140@verizon.net  Subject line BX 495
So I can be sure that I have the correct email address to notify you of the amount due for your portion of the  order.
You will receive a slip with the order for postage due when the Bulb is mailed from Bridget to you.
Please do not respond to the list.

All:
The order window is now closed for US Members.  Response has been amazing - 37 orders and ranging from a few bulbs to around 500!  So it will take Leigh some time to work through all the orders and pick what is available.  Please be patient and also understanding if things that are in limited supply run out.  You will only be billed for what you actually get.  It looks like each person will pay $1 toward the cost of the phyto certificate and shipping costs will be prorated based on the size of each order.
When it is ready to ship, you will get an invoice from Arnold.  Please pay it promptly!  You will later be responsible for the postage when Bridget ships your package to you.
Here are the orders I have received in the order received.  If you don't see your name on this list, please contact me at once:  boblauf@att.net

Thank you all for your interest and participation.  Helping rare plant suppliers who operate in difficult environments also helps us obtain and preserve these fascinating plants for ourselves and for posterity.  And a big thanks to Bridget and Arnold, who helped figure out how to pull this off and will be doing the really hard work of getting the orders fulfilled and paid for!

The AMARYLLIDACEAE OF SOUTHERN AFRICA books have arrived and are being posted to those who have participated.

I've just seen this thread.  I think we have to be careful regarding private exchanges so not to disable the very important BX/SX exchanges.
