I grow a number of Ferraria in a cold greenhouse. Most have flowered but one or two just make leaves and multiply well I place them in their pots in a cool basement for a summer rest. They get a drink in early fall and I wait for growth to commence Arnold Sent from the all new AOL app for iOS On Sunday, June 6, 2021, 2:50 AM, Garak via pbs <pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net> wrote: Hi all, I have mine in huge pots in the (barely) frost free side building I use as a green house. My main problem is water management: I place them outside in the rain mid September and have to be very careful to get them dry enough for the winter cold. I found that artificial lighting helps them a lot - but then again I'm at 48.7°, that equals more or less the USA/Canadian border, so my winters are darker than for most of you. For now, crispa is the only species I get to flower (+ welwitschii, but that's a summer grower), and those are plants I got flowering size from Lauw. I have a few seedlings that increase over the years, but may take several more years at this pace. Am 06.06.2021 um 05:38 schrieb Terry Laskiewicz via pbs: > I also have a lot of Ferraria.. They are dormant now but they never bloom. There are a lot of offsets. Perhaps I am keeping them too warm. Any ideas?
