Cameron McMaster sent me some pictures for the wiki showing these plants in
habitat as he described in his recent post.

One of these has been blooming in my garden recently to my surprise. Most
of the ones I had have died since my garden is too dry for them in summer.
Before I became a bulb fanatic I used to keep a data base of when the
flowers bloomed in my previous garden and for awhile in this garden. I
thought I remembered that with regular watering you could get this plant to
bloom a lot. So I looked it up. I had recorded blooms every month of the
year except for April.
