Thanks for this one Maggi. I'm just beginning a journey into the AIS and its various sites/ blogs and Aril Soc. International so this link is helpful and rewarding. The re-blooming part is of great interest as I have recently been given a couple of re-bloomers and one has a thick and bud-laden stem right now, late autumn. It is called 'Pure As Gold' and is exactly that, as seen last year, elsewhere. I'll photograph in due course, maybe 3 weeks or so.
