Blooms of the day

[Muhammad Arif Khan]

These are Pancratium Martimum ( Sea Daffodils), they always bloom before growing leaves. Normally they are dormant in summer and bloom as the rains start. I pulled these bulbs out and planting got delayed. These were planted on 9/8/13 on my return. I have offered the bulbs to any one who can collect them from my home.
