1. Allium dichlamydeum-pink, winter growing
2. Cyclamen creticum--W
3. Cyclamen hederifolium--W

slugs, W
http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/…
5. Delphinium hesperium--purple, wild collected seed, W.
6. Dichelostemma multiflorum, W., one of the nicest Dichelostemmas I think

once Synnotia, South African irid-W
14. Triteleia bridgsii--California native, very pretty, see wiki pictures,
W.
15. Triteleia laxa--This form is very tall and doesn't offset a lot, but has
more flowers each year, W.
16. Triteleia peduncularis--white flowers in large umbel, W.
17. Tritonia flabellifolia--long tubed, blooms late spring, W.
18. Zigadenus fremontii--tall white, long blooming. I offered this last year
and was going to skip it, but Jane said it was very nice. She was surprised
at how big it was, W.
From Jane McGary:
SEED:
19. Alstroemeria sp., probably pulchra ssp. maxima, a large rather
cold-hardy plant with very large inflorescence of mid-pink flowers.
20. Alstroemeria aff. hookeri, sent misnamed to me from the Watson
collections; smaller species, white to pale pink flowers with dark red
markings.
21. Triteleia peduncularis
22. Dichelostemma multiflorum
23. Allium platycaule
24. Brodiaea elegans

From Kelly Irvin:
36. Lycoris sprengeri seed - open pollinated with L. longituba and L.
chinensis in bloom close by.
37. Pinellia pedatisecta seedlings (I THINK). I can't figure out what else
they could be in the area I found them. The single leaf arising from the
little bulbil looks just like Arum, and that's the only member of Araceae I
had in the area. Pictures of the flowering plant at Bulbmeister.COM Gallery
