2018 IS Going Down As The Year Of First Blooms

Another first bloom, third one this year and only three months in and still
hopeful for one more first time bloom in the making.

This either it's the sixth or seventh year since being planted by seed. For
those not familiar with this specimen, it's an Amyrilla. Like the old
adage for when's the best time to plant an oak tree, twenty years ago
and today. Well for this line of flowering bulbs, it would be seven
years ago and today.

There are three different Amyrillas varieties in this mix planted at four
different year cycles. The curiosity of what variation that seed can bring
forth is always interesting and of course having the abundance that starting
from seed is welcomed for these long lived flowering bulbs.
