Dear All, My Leucojums are blooming too. L. roseum I saw yesterday had spikes. L. autmnale has been blooming for awhile. Interestingly the Leucojum autumnale I put in the ground died out just like John's from a whole different climate, but mine in pots are doing very well. Mine never quite lose all their leaves, just most of them but that may be because I never have stopped watering them completely either since I thought perhaps they needed water since they were still green. Definitely they don't get much water in summer however and for two years now L. autumnale has started blooming in July. Next year maybe I'll try withholding water completely now that I have learned that they can survive that. I thought perhaps they had perennial roots. Mary Sue
