Jane, would you please write about why Lycoris does badly in the far west? I had thought it was just Lycoris sprengeri that we couldn’t grow and that it was my fault that the others didn’t.

Could some of you who grow Lycoris species (particularly Jim Waddick, whose archived comments led to the question) comment on hardiness of various Lycoris species?

Waddick on Lycoris and had a question on the hardiness zones for the various species.
