Does anyone here have any Crown Imperials that they would be willing to part with? I am new to gardening & don't have a lot to trade but I do have a few things. My moms birthday is in a couple of weeks & she has always wanted some of these. So if anyone has any at all (roots, plants, seeds, bulbs, whatever) please let me know!
Wanted: Grown imperials
Crown Imperials don't tend to multiply much, if at all, in the garden. They're also slow to propagate, which is why they're expensive. I've never had one last more than 2 years in my garden, perhaps our climate doesn't suite them (?). Considering they don't produce babies readily and are rather pricey, not something you typically see on trade lists, but bulb companies are having sales now. I noticed Bluestone Perennials has their bulbs marked down to half off now, and were offering Crown Imperials.
