Hello
Last autumn we obtained a small number of this named bulb, now in flower today as photographed below.
I'm left scratching my head ...... is this virus??
There was a brief discussion back in 2007 on this forum with no definite conclussion.
Does anyone know the history??

Aren't they all virused?
-
I am sure that they are all not!!
For the original x see the BISSG newsletters recently published.
Obviously over the years some ( maybe most?) have acquired virus, but certainly some do not appear to have contracted it. To say they all have it is surely to generic?

Google comes up with nothing for BISSG newsletter

I got mine from Dirk Schnabel (Udo) in 2008 I think so he may know more about it. I haven't got it to flower yet!
