Hi, 10 hesperantha vaginata are going to bloom in my garden in southern Catalunya / Spain... they come again every year and I am looking forward to seeing them, it is such a black and yellow show! I had the first bulbs from Lauw's at Bulbargence many yars ago, but these were grown from their seeds ( or seeds from Silverhill? I don't remember), they do well, they produce seeds and the only delicate point is that I have to water them a bit when winter is too dry, common problem in the kind of med. climate we have here ( Rains in autumn and spring with a dry windy gap in between...) The other point is that soil is basically clay/ lime/ stone and now I always put some sand under the bulbs ( and other plants) I try here... Guy PS : If I get enough and you do not need too many, I can keep you some seeds for next BX > From: ezeizabotgard@hotmail.com > To: pbs@lists.ibiblio.org > Date: Sat, 22 Feb 2014 23:03:11 +0000 > Subject: Re: [pbs] source for Hesperantha vaginata > > Besides, it is not the easiest South African corm or bulb, from seed chances of adaptation to one's conditions are better. > > > > _______________________________________________ > pbs mailing list > pbs@lists.ibiblio.org > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php > http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/
