From Mary Sue Ittner; All winter growing Bulbs: 1. Crocus pulchellus MT 4582 cormlets -- originally from Jane McGary BX 2. Ferraria crispa -- I have found this one to do best planted in the ground 3. Habranthus tubispathus -- from seed labeled Rhodophiala, but I'm pretty sure this is what it is. This bulb is not happy in my climate so I am sending it out for others who have hot summers with rainfall 4. Leucocoryne purpurea -- needs period of warmth to bloom properly, long bloom period 5. Leucocoryne vittata -- needs period of warmth to bloom properly, spectacular flower, long bloom period 6. Muscari neglectum (small offsets)-- this increases rapidly, but makes up for it in length of bloom 7. Oxalis bowiei -- needs deep pot to bloom well, fall blooming for me 8. Oxalis engleriana 9. Oxalis hirta -- blooms better for me with deep pot, fall blooming 10. Oxalis hirta 'Gothenburg' -- needs very deep pot, fall blooming 11. Oxalis obtusa ( a number of different ones appearing in other pots, one yellow, other unknown colors) 12. Oxalis obtusa MV 5051 -- see wiki for description 13. Oxalis purpurea (white) -- increases rampantly in ground, beware in Mediterranean climate, although it does have a long period of bloom if planted in a sunny spot 14. Oxalis zeekoevleyensis -- blooms early fall, plant now as I expect it will be rooting soon 15. Polyxena longituba -- blooms in fall, plant now 16. Tulipa linifolia 17. Lachenalia mutabilis 18. Lachenalia splendida Thank you, Mary Sue !!
