Maybe six years ago, I decided I needed to focus my plant collecting somehow. At that time, I discovered the Pacific Bulb Society<\/a>, an amazing group of very smart people who grow and love bulbous plants, or geophytes. I became a member. The group also has several bulb\/seed exchanges each year where members donate seeds and bulbs and the organization sends them off to members for very reasonable prices. I got some seeds of Habranthus robustus, among many others. Having never grown anything like them before, I was skeptical\u2026but they turned out to be pretty easy to germinate and to grow and they live happily in the cool greenhouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
