Hi everyone, First, my thanks to Mary Sue for setting up this list. I am very grateful to have it available. I have set up a list on Yahoo Groups for bulb images. It is open to anyone who grows and enjoys bulbs. To join, either send me a private e-mail asking to be added to the Bulbs Images list, or send a blank e-mail to: <Bulbs_Images-subscribe@yahoogroups.com> Let me know if you have any problems signing on. I will introduce myself, although I believe I already know many of you. I am interested in all sorts of flower bulbs, both hardy (in USDA zone 5) and tender. We also grow about 10,000 daylily plants, most being seedlings in our breeding programs. This is prime daylily season in Indiana, so we are mostly very busy right now. I am trying to develop a breeding and selection program to find freeze-resistant varieties or hybrids of many "tender" bulbs. Genera of interest include Crinum, Nerine, Haemanthus, Gladiolus,Dierama, Moraea, and probably some other things that have slipped my mind at the moment. I grow a few Clivia, and have started breeding those too. We garden (operate the daylily nursery) on 5 acres (2 hectares) of what was once good farmland. I also have two home greenhouses ca. 11 ft by 24 ft (glass glazing, metal frame). They are unbearably hot in summer (now) so the plants are moved outdoors for the summer every year. I have a momentary surplus of Crinum seeds, so I have set up a page in my web site to sell these. Go to URL = http://www.shieldsgardens.com/Seeds/ to see what I currently have available. The list will change from day to day. Jim Shields in central Indiana (USA) ************************************************* Jim Shields USDA Zone 5 Shields Gardens, Ltd. P.O.
