Maybe 10 gloriosas were planted in my small round bed a few years ago. I just decided to do something different with that flower bed. So I dug up the azaleas and the plum tree. Then I started digging up gloriosa tubers. And I dug and I dug. I am sure I missed some. Plus in the spring I dug up about 60 or so to trade and give away. Attached is what they look like in bloom and what I dug up. Anyone want to do some trading ?

I have some hosta seeds. Interested? Carolyn SC Zone 8a   Rylaff  My Weather Posted on Sunday, September 07, 2003 - 03:29 pm EST :    Sure. You being in SC, dont put the tubers in the ground until spring. You store them just like bulbs where you are. I live in North Florida, so I leave mine in the ground.

Most people in colder climates dig up the tubers and store them in a cool dry place for winter.

I ordered that a few years ago and got the yellow one. I'd love to have some tubers. Sounds like you're into gingers. I've got Zingiber 'Midnight' and Zingiber spectablie (Beehive ginger) and a few others if those aren't interesting. wanda CA Zone 9b   Rylaff  My Weather Posted on Tuesday, September 09, 2003 - 02:20 am EST :    Wanda, I dont have either of those. Either would be lovely. Lisa Tetzlaff Florida zone 8b   Fbonsailady  My Favorite Photo My Weather My Garden My Time Posted on Monday, September 15, 2003 - 11:37 am EST :    Beautiful Ro.

How do I do that? Plus where do I find your wish list? Would you take postage or something more? Please let me know. Karalyn, Boise, Idaho Zone 6
