Dear All, Mark McDonough has posted some Triteleia images on the Bulb_Images list. I know not everyone has subscribed to this so I am including some of his comments in this note. Here's a photo of one of Jim Robinett's selections, T. ixioides ssp. scabra 'Tiger'. It's been a reliable bloomer here these last 3 years. This form was selected for it's darker brown stripes. It's also much earlier blooming than most other forms. The photo is a little bit poor quality... a scan from a slide. Here's a view of Triteleia bridgesii taken in June 2002. I consider this plant, with it's oversized flower heads to 6-7" across, to be one of best hardy American bulbs for the garden. It has proved to be hardy and completely moisture-proof here in northeastern USA. Originally purchased from Jim Robinett, two color forms can be seen, one with a more pronounced near-white center. The flowers last for nearly a month. The enclosed photo shows just how impressive and showy the plant can be in the garden. Also check out more photos of this on my website at: http://plantbuzz.com/RockGard/Misc/… http://plantbuzz.com/RockGard/Misc/… I seemed to have misplaced a photo of Trit. laxa 'Humbolt Star' , another of Jim Robinett's splendid selections. If I manage to track it down, I will post it to Bulb_Images.
