FW: South African bulb collections to see in California?

Here’s from the UC Santa Cruz Arboretum’s mouth.

 

If we want these public collections to prosper, funding must be made available. Do it ourselves or find people who will do it for us. A hard task.

 

Cheers,

Hi Bracey,

We have a collection of South African bulbs, but unfortunately the money that was supposed to come to the Arb to take care of that collection mostly didn't arrive. There are so many weeds that it would be embarrassing to have people come here to see them. I don't know if we'll have time to tend to them before they bloom this season.

Hi Steve,

This question came up on the Pacific Bulb Society email list and I don't
remember there being a section for bulbs or is there one?

Happy new year!

Cheers,

What about UC Santa Cruz?  I've enjoyed lots of South African shrubs, like
Proteas,  in bloom there in the winter, but can't remember any bulbs.  Maybe
they have some at a different season.
