Which are the better months to look at for bulb pictures?

April/May would be best there are a few unusual bulbous plants most people are not familiar with.

Here I go, picky picky! Hercules is a Him, though with that glorious pink 'her' sounds much better!

I agree on those you term 'ephemerals', though Chionodoxa lasts ages for me.

Having just discovered that some Hippeastrums are epiphytes I'm thinking sort of orchid baskets or chunks of tree fern (plenty down on the river bank after the floods). I did notice one teeny one of mine with brave little roots sneaking across the top of the mix so, perhaps some sort of vireya rhododendron-like habitat.

And I've seen H cybister.... That was folly, indeed.

Enough!!!
