Doubt if I shall ever get a clump as good as those Fermi, but I'll keep trying. ;D

Curious flowers Fermi, the placement against the rock and grit shows them off nicely!
I realy do love to see thee kinds of bulbs out of a pot, great stuff!

Hello,
I have the following flowering Zephyranthes. Unfortunately I’m not sure that the name is correct in the case of Z. macrosiphon and Z. carinata. If they are false, write it me, please.
(If somebody is interested in it, I have some extra seeds of Z. tubiflora and Z. grandiflora)

Kovács, the photo of Z. candida is especially lovely but what a good collection altogether, as Uli says!
