"eclectic" in
:



If you want to include tuberous plants too, consider dwarf dahlias for
sun/partial shade areas. They put on a good show from early summer
and onward, but require their tubers lifted for storage in the fall as
they are not hardy here. They can be propagated easily from seeds,
divisions, or cuttings. This website gives an idea as to what is
available if you are willing to go the seed route (to start next
winter).

crinums bloom with amaryllis. not sure about Lycoris, or nerine
