Today I went up to the Haight and picked up over 20 Amaryllis belladonna bulbs from a craigslister whose name I totally failed to catch (so sorry!) - he also generously gave me lots of spider plants which might make good, tough border edging.
I can't wait to see the belladonnas (aka Naked Ladies) flower, though this might take a year or more - they hate to be disturbed.

If only they were rare - we'd be rich!
ReplyDeleteIf you can spare some we could make a great border with them. I have variegated and plain green ones. :)
