Re: I. reticulata sources


I can endorse McClure and Zimmerman as a source of reticulata bulbs.  I
purchaced "George," a large red-purple, and "Springtime" a smaller
blue-violet bitone.  The bulbs were huge and bloom this spring was
excellent.  I did not have any luck with 'Katherine Hodgkin", probably
because I tried to force them in pots.  The bulbs survived, but no blooms.
Next year I'll try it outdoors.
