Hi Nhu,

Thanks for the reply.  And thank you for the plant.  It is a beauty.  Since
you were the donor of both plants that I received from BX341, I should
probably have just contacted you directly.  I've learned a lesson about
potting up multiple bulbs at the same time.  I wasn't paying enough
attention and ended up with two identical, unlabeled pots and two tags
sitting side by side on the bench.  I'm more careful now!

Does the H. petiolatum NNBH1304 that you donated at the same time differ
noticeably from the H. striatum?

It has been fun growing the bulbils.  The putative H. striatum that is
blooming now started growing about three months after potting.  The other
bulbil sat and did nothing for over a year, but finally sprouted last
autumn.
