These are bulbs I have had in the same pot for 10 years or more.
Actually 12 or more as I just remembered to check and there was my
blue ribbon from the Phila. Flower show with the date 1996 for one of
these.

plant.

Bulbs seem to go on and on. I think I have had some new bulbs from the
originals but the biggest and bestest seem to be from the originals.
I only bought 1 I think as I am not a big spender so they could all be
new from #1. Someone hear could add to my feeble memory.
