Dear all;

	Now that we have finally had a beak in the summer heat and 
rain, more Lycoris are popping up. L. longituba in a really shady 
spot is fully open and others in a more open site are sending up 
spikes. Rumors of a few L. squamigera in the neighborhood, but I have 
spotted them yet. Usually L. chinesis blooms with both of the above.

	This is a very slow time for bulbous bloom otherwise: Last of 
the tiger lilies, first of the L. formosanum; late Crinum 'Cecil 
Hudyshel', 'Super Ellen', 'Mrs. James Hendry' and some straggling x 
powellii.

	Awaiting cool weather blooms.

		Best	Jim W.
