Let's know if it works Ashley. If it does, I'll have a go with my one and only pink F. alburyana.

Now that is brave  ;D

In 2001 Joy Bishop wrote an article for the journal of the Frit Group describing how she propagates frits by cutting the bulbs. This article appears on the Frit Group website:

Since I don't possess Joy's cultivation skills, I have never had the nerve to try it.
