Hi all, I'd appreciate some background information on Cyrtanthus inaequalis. It is listed in "The Color Encyclopedia of Cape Bulbs" by Manning, Goldblatt, & Snijman, so I assume that it grows in the Cape and is hence a winter-growing species. My bulb is now 8 years old and about 2 inches in diameter (more or less), and has not yet bloomed. I suspect I'm not growing it as well as I could. Advice would be appreciated; remember I'm in central Indiana, where it's hot, humid, and often rainy in summer and pretty cold in winter (last winter it dropped to -12 F / -23 C at one point). It stays on the dry side in the warm greenhouse (T = 55 to 60 F) in winter and has been outdoors in the open in full sun (and rain) in summer. Should I move it to the cold greenhouse (minimum T just above 32F or 0 C in winter, very hot in summer) where my Haemanthus coccineus and H. barkerae thrive?
