Thank You, I'm excited to try again now that I've got a little experience - the anemone de caen and blanda I tried several years ago all rotted away. I'll doctor up my seed request list for next year. The one thing I've learned about seed is that sowing it outside in the ground rather than pots adapts it to my climate much more effectively than winter sowing in pots in my cold greenhouse, which is that much more effective than planting mature bulbs from outside sources directly outside in the ground (a failure almost every time, they drown and rot).
I repotted(first time repot) and plunged my fritillarias outside in clay pots close to my concrete foundation throught the winter for the first time this winter and had unbelievable success; several fritillarias are budded up for the first time from 2004 seed, my first year of SRGC exchanged seed, and the rest increased in size after being same for last 2 years. Now maybe I can claim true amateur gardener status, and will havce some open blossoms to photo when I arrive home tomorrow. CK
