I am trying to get a reading on how much you are irrigating parts of your garden by the other plants I see. My guess from this photograph is that there is some irrigation during the summer but not a lot. Your input would be most helpful to me.

Post by: fermi de Sousa on February 04, 2016, 02:03:36 AM: Hi Robert,
I try not to irrigate this part of the garden because of dormant bulbs, however we had had some summer rain recently and I think that may've triggered these into flower
cheers

Acis autumnalis does not go dormant if I keep it watered during the summer, however it seems happier if I keep them summer dry. Thank you for the information. It is helpful to me.

And they will probably still be flowering after the Lycoris have finished!
