Mike, I am so excited for your blooms. I took most of mine out of the cold frame this week. Going to have nice temperatures for the next 2 weeks. By then, we may just get a brief cool spell, but the cold weather should be finished. We will see.
My ackermanii had 1 bloom in February, and it looks as though it is setting lots of buds now. German Empress, and a noid are trying to set buds now. I hope they bloom soon.
