Bay area Tulipa

Many tulips will bloom over several years in my Berkeley
area garden but are unreliable because of our lack of
winter. In the Botanical Garden, T. clusiana (maybe not all
cultivars) has been long lived and this is a well known
species for zone 9. I'd like to hear of other species that
have done well for Bay area gardeners. Likely candidates are
T. bakeri, saxatilis, batalini, and linifolia.
