After reading Mary Sue's list I decided to survey my plants this past weekend to see what was in bloom and report. At first I thought only a few things were in flower but there were more than I expected. Here is what is blooming right now at my house: Paramongaia weberbaueri Lachenalia bulbifera, aloides 'Pearsonii', aloides quadricolor, aloides, mutabilis, "Yellow" bulbifera, splendida Oxalis obtusa 'MV5005A', sp. 'Winter Blooming #1', purpurea, glabra, regnelii 'Frances' Scadoxus puniceus 'Magnificum' Roman Hyacinth - blue Gladiolus priorii Narcissus bulbocodium monophyllus Narcissus 'Avalanche of Gold', 'Campernelle', 'Erlicheer', 'St. Keverne', 'Orange Frilled', 'Castanets' Nothoscordum selloweianum, dialystemon, Ipheion sessile Scilla peruvianum, greilhuberi Calochortus 'Cupido' Crocus tommasinianus 'Roseus' Muscari macrocarpum Phaedranassa chloracra Pelargonium sidoides - black flowered Cyrtanthus obrienii, brachyscyphus Daphne odorata Veltheimia bracteata - pink, 'Bicolour', and 'Lemon Flame' Clivia x cyrtanthiflora and very soon (I saw buds this morning) there will be Clivia miniata - orange, 'Victorian Peach', and yellow, as well as Tecophilaea cyanocrocus vars. pure blue, leitchtlinii, and violacea. Most of these are only just now opening their first blooms. The Lachenalias and Oxalis have been in bloom a while and are the most spectacular at this time. --Lee Poulsen Pasadena area, California, USDA Zone 9-10
