It must be dessert time, I wonder what she ate for dinner...it was only 3 o'clock my time when she mentioned dinner but I had to eat something...power of suggestion.

9. Is it a bulb or rhizome?

10. Does it bloom early in the spring? (I'm talking relative sequencing here. Daffodils don't come out until late March where I live.)

About how my cats would react to Battlestar Galactica....

feelingfeline · February 2016

Back in a sec when I have consulted google re 9.

MusicLover · February 2016

11. Did I mention it in question 7?

Loveroflife · February 2016

Awww, precious.

9. Is it a bulb?

queenmomcat · February 2016

(snorts of laughter, teasing) Aw, Lover, you didn't have to go so far as use the same number even.

feelingfeline · February 2016

9. Google says it is a TRUE BULB.

10. Spring began in December here

(this is not a usual pattern so some of these flowers made the news in my part of the world and in the UK for being out in December!) Personally speaking my own have been out since Jan. Again this would be uncommon even in our milder temperate climate.

I would hazard that it is considered relatively early spring flowreing but probably should double check with Google, will correct if wrong.

feelingfeline · February 2016

Google say yes, and when Google say yes nobody can say no.

feelingfeline · February 2016

11 YES you did mention it

queenmomcat · February 2016

12. is it a crocus?

feelingfeline · February 2016

12 Not a crocus, (though they are out early this year too at DD's school.)

queenmomcat · February 2016

Just realized crocuses may be from corms.

13. Do the flowers tend to come in a limited range of colors?

feelingfeline · February 2016

13. They do.

feelingfeline · February 2016

(Looking up corms)

You are right about crocus corms.
