From Jim Waddick:
Bulbs of Scadoxus puniceus: "These were originally received from a botanic
garden as S. abyssinicus, but this name is incorrect.
Subsequent bloom confirmed their correct ID. These bulbs are blooming or
near blooming size. They should be planted with bulb barely covered and kept
on the dry side all winter. I have grown these in large pots kept bone dry
from Oct to Feb or March when they naturally start up growth again. The
planting medium was mostly coarse gravel to small stones and some portion of
soiless mix. They form a sturdy bloom stalk separate from the pseudostem and
leaves which follow bloom closely."
These bulbs are available one to a customer, and we ask for a donation of
$5.00 each PLUS the cost of shipping. No overseas orders, please. Supply is
very limited.
Thank you, Jim !!
Best wishes,
Dell
Dell Sherk, Director, PBS BX
