looks great ... how hardy are the white varieties I was thinking of planting some in my red hot poker mini bed in the front garden to extend the season with colour also I thought the height will work as well....

Do you plant the bulb in the autumn Siris?

Linda, friend along the road gave me this,she bought from Said T &M, a few years ago.
Gg, Hardy for me, taller and increases more slowly, than the blue.

Couldn't get the whole spike in the frame with out turning it into portrait mode, then they appear on their sides for PC users.

Avon bulbs sell the white ones ... is yours sterile ?

Although pods are forming on the pale blue, I always cut them off, can't say if I've noticed buds on the White. I imagine they would take ages from seed.

if they are sterile they flower for longer

Will try to tell you when the last flower is finished, if I remember. At present 1/2 the spike is open, from the bottom.
