Hi Alberto,

I would like to know what "Geissorhiza conditions" are, as I am 
interested in trying to grow some species from this genus.  What 
temperatures, light and moisture regimes do they like?  G. radians is of 
particular interest.

thank you,

Sarah

> Brian, bagnoldii is a desert species and probably the Chilean one in a hottest climate. It can enjoy cool nights (being in a desert) but during the day it gets really hot there. If you can grow it under say Geissorhiza conditions there are chances it wil make it. It is a summer dormant species. Chilean bulbs are comparatively difficult to grow but this is due to their dry air climate, rather than mixes or temperatures.
