I seem to have gone wrong putting the picture on but if you click on the image it will enlarge so that you can see it better.

Thanks for the complements, they are Blackmore & Langdons so are rather pricey to start with. I get one as a birthday present or similar. Once you get a corm they are easy to increase by cuttings, one big problem you may have is vine weevil but I now use Levington container compost that has insecticide in it. Although this may cost a little more you only need to save one corm (£8.00) to be on the right side. Sorry about the thumb nail but it does come full size if clicked on.
