Bonaventure,

How long does Triphyllum actually take to send up leaves?  I know that th=ey
germinate and start producing their bulb below surface, but how long do
they then take to send up a leaf?  How does one know when to refridgerate
them or give them a rest?  They don't actually "go dormant" to give you a
handy hint that they need a rest <grin>.

I've been wondering about this for a while but your comment about the 4
weeks to germinate prompted me to ask.

Cheers.
