Jonrickard@aol.com's respons to orange flowers

Hi!
I just intercepted your message to Jim regarding orange and orange/red
plants adn I noticed that your list includes Beschorneria yuccoides... I
just saw that plant today at a nearby garden -- it was in ful bloom and
gorgeous!  The owner offered me a plant, but said that hers had taken seven
years  to bloom and she didn't know whether it would bloom again.  Just by
looking at it, we guessed that it would bloom once and then send off pups
and die like an agave.... are we correct?   I look forward to your
response!

Nan

P.S.  Please include your name in your posts, so we can respond to a person
rather than an e-mail address.... : }
