Here's a front view on this--it definitely is not open all the way yet. I had no time to "pretty-fy" things eir!

Thank You Marylyn! You will be the proud owner of some at RU.

MaryLee--the coloration and reproduction rates are quite variable, as you will notice as time goes by.

Nancy--most of them are very easy to grow, I do have a few very small species which don't compete well at all with weeds and that darned nutgrass; but most are quite easy. That H. martinezzi looked good for 4 days but Ruth Page only looked good for 2. That's somewhat variable too.

Big Al--nice to hear from you. One bulb sends up one bloom at a time; but they frequently rebloom (most of them). I should have good "en mass" shots soon; we are off to a sputtering start here. But its all good, right? So "en garde"! I need to start some zinnia's this weekend so we have something to argue about. ;)
