From Mary Sue Ittner:
SEED:
4. Babiana sp. -seed from descendents of plants grown from seed more
than 20 years ago; these are naturalized in my Northern California
garden, probably hybrids
5. Camassia quamash - collected in the wild where they grow in wet spots
6. Cyclamen hederifolium
7. Delphinium nudicaule - can't guarantee these since they could be
hybrids, but they were saved from a dark red form
8. Gladiolus fourcadei - winter grower, original plants grown from Harry Hay
seed
9. Moraea vegeta - easy plant to grow in the ground in Northern
California, flowers are brown, but a display of these we find very
interesting
10. Pelargonium incrassatum - winter growing, Namaqualand plant
11. Phaedranassa cinerea
12. Romulea tetragona - check the wiki to see how these seeds differ from
the ones below
13. Romulea tetragona (flavandra form)
14. Toxicoscordion (Zigadenus) fremontii - this plant is native in
Northern California where I live
