I don't know why mine took so long to appear but all is forgiven. Enjoy. This is Krakatau from my friend in FL BWO Plant Delights.

More pink, could be Habranthus Cherry Bomb. Remember Hidden Treasures in FL? Owner got sick and died rather quicklyfrom cancer. I always think of him when I look at these RL. Belinda's Dream in the background.

The common yellow is the most skimpy bloomer, I thought it was supposed to be the most prolific. Esperanza is in the background

Very easy to grow from seeds but IME better to sow in containers. When you direct sow it is virtually impossible to tell what is a seedling and what is a weed. You can keep them in a container for a season and then plunk the whole thing in ground. Can take up to 3 yrs to flower.

Bossy, your rain lilies look great! I love them, too. I love your border rows. I'm working on doing the same. So reliable - and perennials! What's not to love?!

Are you thinking of Chris Moore of Buried Treasures?
