hello i am very interested

Oh thank you for your compliment and your offer, Amanda. Amarillid plants are my favorite subjects and my heart-pulse (sorry for inadequate terminology *lol*) I shall write you privately. so - back to the topic in spe *g* I found it to be conspicuous and characteristc of amaryllid plants (and, more generally - MANY bulbous plants, respectively) - that these can be regarded as herd animals *ROFL* (but by all means with a serious thought) and being most attractive when displayed in mass plantings. These amaryllogene white powder tassels do not make any exception to that rule. They are simply wonderfull in a dense mass planting and when blooming simultaneusly, as can instantly concluded from several of the thumbnail images in the link I gave above. Hans-Werner

I've had the occasional bloom in July, sometimes they do that. Didn't affect my winter bloom, just a nice bonus. As for the offset, leave it there for awhile, anyway. There are differing opinions about whether it needs to be separated from the mother bulb when it gets larger. I never separate mine, just leave them to grow in a clump and don't seem to notice any decrease in bloom. - Steve
