I looked at the current BX and then the list of items I sent Luminita 
and I think I left off the name of one of the Tulips I included on the 
list I sent her.  I originally got it from Thompson and Morgan. The 
Tulipa montana was from a couple of sources including Jane McGary. I'm 
not sure what number you would assign it. It was Tulipa schrenkii , 
synonym Tulipa suaveolens. I suspect I was wanting to check the spelling 
of the name and sent the email out not realizing it wasn't complete.

Also years ago I got seed from Harry Hay labeled, ex Nothoscordum sp. 
Flores & Watson 8485, Santiago. I've been trying to identify it for 
years and finally thought I had figured it out by looking at a number of 
articles I found online and keys for Tristagma and think it is T. 
violaceum. I've sent photos to one of the authors and she thinks I might 
be correct, but requested a leaf to be sure and the plants are dormant 
at the moment. It has been a reliable winter grower for me in my 
Mediterranean garden. Photos on the wiki:

So if you request the seed check the wiki later in case I have the wrong 
identification.
