Re: Tricyrtis ID?
Hello Chris,
The same Tricyrtis has been blooming in my garden for about 3 weeks now.
Will be finishing up before long now. I agree with Janis... T. latifolia.
While we are on the subject... this one also floats around under the old
name of T. puberula. In fact, I received my latifolia under the puberula
name some years ago.
Next yellow bloomer up for me is T. nana.... the apple, or rather
Tricyrtis of my eye. Believe it is becoming my favorite of all the
Tricyrtis... but then I am partial to the dwarf forms in almost any genus.
