Dear Michael and Paul,
It sounds fabulous that you've amassed such a
collection. I am normally a species purist but adore
Nerine sarniensis hybrids. I hope you'll be inclined
to grace the wiki with pictures of this season's
blooms!
I wish you the best of luck in your noble quest to get
proper names for the hybrids, which I imagine may be
challenging.
Aloha,
Jacob Knecht
