Thanks for a great season

Another fun season of shipping bulbs has ended. Thanks to all the customers who keep this going. I'm hoping to keep the blog more active and write a bit more this year. The autumn colchicums are coming on strong now. This C. Tenorii or tenorei or a few different other spellings I've run across. It's Italian, amd I like it because it has a stout bearing the flowers don't really flop like some of the bigger species.
