From Mary Sue Ittner: BULBS: 1. Oxalis sp. from Uli -- collected in Oaxaca, Mexico. It is summer growing and blooming. 2. Oxalis triangularis- Although I used to grow this outside in summer, I have lately been growing it in a pot in a bathroom (with a window and a skylight so there is indirect light) and it stays in growth as long as I water it and blooms off and on all year. I let it dry out however so I could share some of the bulbs with others. It has purple leaves and light pink flowers and very strange bulbs. 3. Rhodohypoxis baurii var. platypetala -- originally from some BX, these are white with a pink tinge, summer growing. 4. Zantedeschia 'Blaze' -bright orange flowers and green leaves with white spots, summer growing. From Ellen Hornig: 5. Seed of Zantedeschia jucunda (donated by Uli Urban) CORMS/TUBERS: 6. Typhonium diversifolium (according to Wilbert Hetterscheid, will become Sauromatum diversifolium) - from seed collected at 3200m on Garwhal Himal in India -very variable foliage, little green or sometimes purplish spathes 7. Gladiolus crassifolius 8. Gladiolus mortonius 9. Tritonia drakensbergensis 10. Tigridia pavonia 'Sunset in Oz' - my own intro, years ago; a form with "flame" coloring, streaks and shades of red on marigold, rather than flat marigold 11. 2-yr-old Cyrtanthus breviflorus bulbs, grown from seed I collected near Semonkong in Lesotho Thank you, Mary Sue and Ellen !! Best wishes, Dell Dell Sherk, PBS BX
