Ornithogalum - curious
James Waddick (Sun, 15 Jul 2007 12:43:04 PDT)

Dear all,
I was just thinking ( I know that's dangerous) about
Ornithogalum. And the few hardy species are of a certain sameness and
have white flowers.

At least 3 South African species have brightly orange to
yellow flowers ( O dubium, O maculatum and O. multifolium).

The wiki page
(http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/…)
shows some hybrids . but they seem to be all South African too.

Are there any hardy hybrid Ornithogalum ythat are any color
other than same-old-white?

Anyone hybridizing hardy Ornithogalum ?

Curious? Best Jim W.
