Scilla puschkinioides, JJA 877.200

I always get confused with this species and Puschkinia scilloides...

Me too! I just did that with a pic that will be in the next IRG - can't help myself - the author was quick to tell me!

Thanks Yann!

Here one I have received as Hyacinthoides (Scilla) reverchonii from the seedexchange, think it is correct. :)

Lovely, Hans. When did you sow these? I've got some seedlings also from SRGC seed that have just germinated this year. How long do I have to wait?

Thanks a lot Matt - I think it took about four years, it might grow faster in less harsh condidions. ;-)

See the picture below, Yann. I've just replyed the same question on Narcissus thread.
I use same soil for all bulbs. I use pumice, kanuma and akadama blend. The largest grains for bottom of the pot, middle ones for top dressing and the finest ones for growing medium with some perlite and charcoal chips. No organic matter for avoiding root/bulb rot during our deadly heat and humid summer.

Thanks, Steve :) Did you request its seed to SRGC SeedEx 2012? ;)
