Default Planting Starfire Lily (= Haemanthus)

Again the answer for Mr. Short-Term Memory:

Damn right there is a solution. First of all the so-called "Starfire Lily"
isn't a lily at all. It's Haemanthus, a genus in the Amaryllidaceae (not in
the Liliaceae and definitely not a Lilium). Once again the use of "common
names" has proven worthless and the source of confusion. A google search
would have quickly turned up info on your plant. Even a beginners book on
bulbs would have the answer. There are no arcane procedures required for
planting bulbs. (Unless you really want some!!!)

Next time do a google search and save yourself time.
Do your homework and find the proper name of the plant.
You make anyone regret bothering with you at all.

BJ, you concluded an earlier reply of yours to my post, and I quote:
"BTW, the following post has a solution."

Yet you offered no solution!

Then in your last post, you replied:
Same old! Same old! I noticed that you attacked before answering the posed
question. Why didn't YOU answer the question in your initial post? Is your
ego so fragile that it feeds on belittling other? Your initial reply

certainly
wasn't amusing and didn't contribute anything "worthwhile."

Once again, your reply was an attack that no answer was given. Perhaps you
should offer an answer before you flame others.
