This is a great article, except the spell check changed “radiata” to “radiate!” I never knew that Cpt. Robert’s grave in New Bern, NC actually had red spider lilies blooming on it! http://www.newbernsj.com/news/local/new-bern-s-original-spider-lilies-traveled-from-japan-in-1854-1.382193

by Bulb Hunter on 20. Sep, 2014 in The Cabin
***This is the second to the last blog of our summer review. It is a short one. The last one will take us up to the fall. By the way, our website incorrectly marked our oxblood lilies as sold out. WE STILL HAVE SOME! I have made the change at www.southernbulbs.com and they are now […]

After my quick trip to El Paso, it was back to the farm to check on the freshly planted antique roses and meet a shipment of some lent lilies that an Oklahoman bulb farmer was divesting themselves of. The shipment of bulbs is on the tailgate of my truck, and the rose you see is […]

From Bumps to Bulbs: Summer in Review Part 4
by Bulb Hunter on 22. Aug, 2014 in The Cabin
We made it back to the farm after our trip across the South and the only really exciting thing to mention was the fact that the original milk and wine lily crinums had now put on their gigantic seed pods where flowers had once been. These pods eventually pull the flower stalks down to the […]
