The soil appeared to be of a decomposing granitic nature and supported a very sparse desert-like vegetation.Wild materialExcerpt from American Horticulturist Vol. 54 No. 6, pp. 30-32, regarding this material: "To date, only two introductions of this species are known to exist in the U.S.A. They consist of the above introduction [the present accession, NA 34077] and an earlier one [see NA 34076] in 1949 when several bulbs from Peru were received for identification by Dr. Hamilton P. Traub of the Plant Life Society in Southern California. He flowered the bulb and set seed which he then distributed. Longwood Gardens received some of these seeds in 1957 and grew several bulbs from this first introduction from Huarmey. The plant first flowered at Longwood in 1966." Card notes: "Accession 65522 begins growth somewhat later [than Longwood 572124, NA 34076] and flowers end of Nov., Dec., and first of Jan. Work is being done to get both accessions to begin growth and bloom together. [...] The plant of accession 572124 [see NA 34076] flowers usually the last two weeks of Oct., first two weeks of Nov. Water freely until the foliage begins to die back considerably, then gradually dry off. Plants of this accession begin dying back about the end of Jan., beginning of Feb. After the foliage dies back bulbs should be stored in a cool, dry location, either in vermiculite or left in the pot. After remaining dry most of the summer, the bulbs begin to show signs of new growth about the first week of Oct. Bulbs in vermiculite should then be potted, and bulbs still in pots should be top dressed or repotted. Temperatures during storage (summer) run 65 deg. to 75 deg. Humidity 20 to 40 percent. When growth begins in October, temperatures begin 70 to 75 deg., Nov. and Dec. 65 to 75 deg., Jan. and Feb. 65 to 70 deg. Humidity approx. 65 percent." According to B. Evans, material of this accession extant in 2024 derives from at least one generation of seed from the original plants, but the parent plants (which were lettered A and B) have long flowered later than NA 34076 and seem to conform to NA 34077. 2170041NA 34077
