Ah. I love agaves, and the strawberry pot is a great place for one, just not for those of us who can only offer a dining room window for its winter home.

You are extremely kind. I live in Bucks county, Pa. I can order some as I am pretty sure I have seen them offered in Van Engelen or McClure &Z. I am not sure when it is the best time to start them. I will check the catalogs. Possibly like freesia?

Thank you Lisa. I have done posts on Nerine in the past, but not a detailed one about their culture, assuming that few could raise them indoors as houseplants. However, your situation sounds as if you could have success, as long as you can provide the long, winter growing season with good light levels, and a summer dry period where they would receive little to no moisture aside from a drop or two, and some higher temps, you could certainly grow them. Where do you live? In North America" I could send you a few bulbs to try…

And as for the photoshoot, well, due to confidentiality agreements, I can't tell you – but let's just say that a very cool lifestyle magazine might have a story in it next November.

You know? It is an agave, and I had better move it into the greenhouse now that you mentioned it!
