Did you know that your voodoo lily will bloom even if it isn't planted and is just sitting on the window sill. After mine bloomed inside for the first time my grand daughter tried to kill the smell by putting baby powder on it. She is now 24 and still remembers that flower blooming. Even though I live in zone 5, I planted it outside and it now blooms later and has made so many babied that everyone I know is growing at least one. The bulb multiplies quickly but as long as the ground is not disturbed around the bulb it is easy to lift the new bulbs and replant them or throw them in the garbage. Swayback your bulbs are lovely. How long have you been growing them in pots?
