Mary Lee - the Prairie Nymph's flower stem grows only about 6-7 inches tall...blooming in the spring (middle of May around here) The bloom opens in the AM and closes up in the PM. They're fairly easy to propagate from seed
( I've at least 75-80 seedlings started from last year's seed that I collected from a large group growing wild on the acreage of a good friend in the Huntsville area) The bulbs are small, easy to transplant.
Probably best to grow in a pot or an open area in a bed...and yes, I have enough for you if you'd like some!! Just LMK!
I've attached a photo of one I dug..a little damage to one petal but a good enough representation.....if you've never seen one

Linda and Josephine...do you have any of these? Lee
