In other words, is the true l. shaanxiensis a species which produces its foliage in late winter rather than in the fall? Or, were you making a distinction between late-summer flowering species (longituba and chinensis for instance) and fall-flowering species (e.g. radiata) ? Jim McKenneyMontgomery County, Maryland, USA USDA zone 7, where I don't have time to list everything which is now blooming. _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.ibiblio.org http://pacificbulbsociety.org/list.php http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/
