| Erythronium hendersonii
is one of our favorites in the garden. The few plants we have were scattered
about and several years ago we marked them with yarn and as they died down
we carefully dug them up and moved them to one location. Native to southwest
Oregon into northern California, this plant, according to various bulb books,
enjoys a damp soil in the spring. Since we have very free draining soil,
this probably accounts for the reason it has not reseeded. We have pollinated
these plants and have collected seed. The seed germinated and we will be
planting out hundreds of seedlings in the fall of 2002.
