Thanks for reminding me of John Scheepers! Years and years ago I ordered from them and had totally forgotten about them. That is one fine bulb! (and you did the growing!)

Poughkeepsie, NY(Zone 6a)

LOL! The bulb did the growing, I just planted it! Soil mix is one part peat moss, 3 parts perlite.

There is one mistake I am making! I have 3 growing right now and they are all sitting in a soil-less mix and nothing else.(no nutrition)
Think I will fertilize them right now!
Thanks for the recipe.
