Oh, excellent!!  Although, since my brother is sending me a big box of lily
of the valley, iris, and dayliles thinned from his garden, plus plants I've
already ordered this spring, maybe I better put these on my list for next
year <grin>.  Do you know off-hand if the cyclamen should be planted spring,
fall, or any time?

Thanks much!
