Re: Hippeastrum species
MR.Sheilds,
you seemed a good source to ask what I might do to get my H.papilio to bloom?I
have had it for 8 yrs now the bulbs have multiplied several times over but
no(never) blooms ..I know it prefers to be root bound but beyond that nothing I
have done has been successful.Would really appreciate any pointers you or
others might offer.
Many thanks,
Connie Hoy
