Just had a quick peep at that link (thanks for that), but will read it
in earnest tomorrow. It's never going to be easy, but might be worth a
try if I can find plants to experiment on. If only they were as easy as
Cyclamen coum! I haven't tried them in a rain shadow yet, so that's one
to try. It's time I tried them from seed, as I have with C.hederifolium
with great success. I love them to bits! One can't have too many:~).


Yes. I discovered that C. coum would actually self-sow and establish
a carpet under those conditions - which I hadn't expected.

Unfortunately, all information is Calochortus are trickier :-(
