From Jane McGary:  (BULBS)

1.       Iris tuberosa (syn. Hermodactylus tuberosum), small bulbs
2.       Acis valentina (syn. Leucojum valentinum.), fall-flowering
3.       Hyacinthoides lingulata (“subsp. ciliolata”), late fall flowering, blue, 6-8 cm tall, best frost-free
4.       Acis tingitana (syn. Leucojum tingitanum), North Africa, 30 cm, probably best frost-free
5.       Notholirion thomsonianum, fragrant pale lavender trumpet flowers on tall stems, tolerant of various conditions in the Pacific Coast garden given some drainage
6.       Colchicum boissieri, pink, fall-flowering miniature species, corms extend horizontally, plant flat with any visible roots on the underside. Quite hardy.

NOTE: In conformity with CITES guidelines, the next two items, Sternbergia spp., cannot be sent outside the US.
7.       Sternbergia lutea, typical form, fall-flowering, requires excellent drainage and a warm, dry summer. In spring, protect from bulb fly!
8.       Sternbergia lutea, small form. About half the size of the typical plant, but free flowering and fast increasing. May be the form reported from Crete. Same requirements as typical form.
