Bulbs for shade ?

I agree with Rolands advice on Cyclamen coum and hederifolium, best grown
from seed and planted out
We can have heavy rain here in July too, and any other month. These
Cyclamen, (and C alpinum, cilicium, intaminatum, repandum vividum) can take
summer rain in the open ground provided that there is no standing water.
These Cyclamen all survived happily in the open ground or open sand plunges
in 2007 see this link,

You idea to start them in garden soil (in the greenhouse, I presume) and
then plant them out in the garden in the second year sounds interesting.
About too wet, I can do little. The middle half of the USA is in the midst
of its worst drought since the 1930's, but we can have up to 7 inches (175
mm) of rain in the month of July in some years.
