Wiki Photographs Page

Dear All,

Mark Wilcox, Mark McDonough, and I decided that even if a genus has only
one species that it is best to make a page for it. Although you could find
a genus on another wiki page by searching or by coming in from Google, if
you have our wiki bookmarked and access it directly we think you'd look
over the list and assume it wasn't there. So yesterday I created a new page
for Pabellonia although I kept a link to it on Leucocoryne (Alan Meerow
told us when this one was discussed that dna work was probably going to
return it one day to Leucocoryne).

I also made a new page for Leontochir.

Both of Jane's images are now on their own page.

While I was at it I also created a Bessera page.

Last year I bought corms from Diana at Telos Rare Bulbs. This genus is in
the new family with Brodiaea, Dichelostemma, Triteleia, which I grow as
many of as I can get seeds of, so I was interested in seeing how the summer
growing genera compared. Mostly I have tried to stick to species more
appropriate for my climate. Alas, it bloomed while I was in South Africa so
I didn't get to see it, but my friend Jana Ulmer took care of it in my
absence and took pictures for me which I have finally gotten on the wiki. I
hope it comes back. It looks really gorgeous!
