Hi Pam. It's nice that you're back. Kimberly Dawn that's such pretty a name! Staggering the blossoms was one of my plans. Every Sept. Oct. I'd set out to look for big healthy bulbs, the next step was to find, early, middle, and late blooming variety. The potted ones, they just survived, but didn't have enough "chilling hours" to properly form flowers for this season. If I wanted, perhaps, I can give it another year of growing and replenishing for next year flowers. But I may just use the containers for something else this year, and toss those into the compost bin.

Valsflowers, those pink ones are eye-candies. Like Pam has mentioned, my pink ones were short lived, and only the mid...to late blooming varieties are now making the show.
