It will be a pleasure Ojibway, I was planning to use this vase for a Snakes Head fritillary but this will do..I think this Vase is for Crocus.

Thanks, Pimpernel. But, oh, yes, I found that site a couple of years ago and now correspond with Julie at hyacinthvases.org.uk a couple of times a year. She has an amazing collection and what she doesn't know about this subject isn't worth knowing. And, if I thought my collecting was mad .......

Coals to Newcastle then Oji..Actually, looking at Julie's collection made me realise I have a few more bulb vases.

But I appreciated you sending me the link, Pimpernel.
So, you've got vases! Now, what are you going to grow? Room for experiment here, methinks?

That will be interesting! Please can you post later pictures? Me and my hyacinth vases would love to see how this turns out. I know it is possible with tulips and crocus ( in little crocus vases) but I've never seen an iris done this way.
