Hi Matt,
I was at the Symposium, but was not a major bidder. Robert Parker, on the
other hand, was helping out IBS quite a lot and I expect he purchased a lot
of the Cyrtanthus, one of his favorites. So hopefully he will respond to
your question (in text).
Did you look at Bill Dijk's pictures on the wiki?
http://www.ibiblio.org/pbs/pbswiki/index.php/CyrtanthusHybrids
He has added a lot of Cyrtanthus hybrid pictures. Many of them are so
striking. Lee also has a picture of a hybrid C. elatus on that page that I
keep hoping to rename once someone agrees it is an elatus hybrid. Does
yours look like his? He didn't say where he got it.
I was thinking it is a strange (but very satisfying) time of year to be in
bloom, but I have two flowering stalks about to open on a Cyrtanthus
mackenii in my greenhouse that has never bloomed this time of year before.
We have a lot of instructions on the wiki about how to use it:
http://www.ibiblio.org/pbs/pbswiki/index.php/UsingThisWiki is a good place
to start.
But I will also send you some abbreviated instructions again so you can add
your picture for everyone to see.
Mary Sue
