Bulbs blooming in the garden include a number of hybrid Crocosmia, 
Brodiaea californica, Brodiaea elegans, and some Allium species.

In the bulb house:
Calochortus clavatus ssp. clavatus (this is a very large and showy plant)
Calochortus plummerae
Calochortus weedii ssp. weedii
Calochortus weedii ssp. intermedius (tentatively identified; I got it 
under an invalid subspecies name)
Alstroemeria hookeri
Bloomeria crocea (extra large inflorescences after being turned loose 
from pots)
several Allium species
Biarum tenuifolium

The outside of the bulb house is decorated with long climbing stems 
of Eccremocarpus scaber in flower.
