That's too bad Barbara, do you think they will refund your money or send you a new bulb next fall?

I'm just going to let this one go: I can't blame RC for a bulb that probably got frozen on the east coast of the USA. I did end up with a nice Siberia instead of the Diva that I was suppose to have gotten this fall. A very Happy New Year to everyone on this forum.

Very nice, but I don't believe that is Chico. If I'm reading the photos correctly, Chico has a pale midline going up each petal. Also the individual petals are narrower. However, that could be Rosado: the shape and markings are correct. Another possibility is Merangue. Members of the Cybister group are very difficult to ID since there are so many new ones on the market with
slight variations in markings.

Ah, yes it could very well be Rosado--that sounds familiar, too.
Thank you--
My apologies; can't remember what I put in that pot a few years ago.
Whatever it is, it has made quite a few babies. Should I give them all a bigger pot or divy them up? (not now, but later) Do you know if it has a preference?

I don't know if Cybisters have a preference as to removing the offshoots. If it were mine, I'd just put it in a bigger pot. The offshoots will eventually separate on their own. You are lucky to get it to rebloom. I've never had much luck getting them to rebloom: of course I plant them outside.

Thanks! It is kinda fun/different anyway--

I'll try a bigger pot then and see what they do

Lemon-Lime is pretty, may have to get that one in the fall.

I couldn't resist because it is little and cute--figured I could manage to tuck it in somewhere ...
