I looked at that flag and thought it was all faded, and thought, this is what I get for never posting. How do I correct it, and get my 'ol stars & stripes? By the way, Ian's lecture in Bulbs in Prague was saved on my desktop, was so helpful for the Narcissus seeds I ordered from Dryad (which I saw while reading SRGC)this weekend.
I now had a recipe for soil mix, yeah!: 2 parts sharp sand- check, 2 parts grit - check, 1-2 parts leaf mold- check I even had two kinds, bone meal- run to Home Depot. Who would have guessed I had to put the seeds, in the middle of the pot. No wonder I have never been able to sprout any crocus seeds, or any other bulbs for that matter, in that, I put on top of compost mix, and covered with either sand or grit, and planted in January.
So, I am pretty excited about getting seeds this year, and saved seeds. Thanks for your help. Cecile
