There is a new bulb book coming from a fellow member of the Mediterranean Garden Society who lives in Israel. Perhaps in time for a holiday gift. Members of the Alpine Garden Society get a nice discount on the pre-order. Shipping is available to the US. Bulbs of the Eastern Mediterranean by Oron Peri will be published in November/December, with illustrations of more than 400 species. The Eastern Mediterranean countries of Israel, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria, Jordan, Cyprus and north-east Egypt offer a rich and varied bulbous flora. In this field guide more than 400 species are illustrated with over 600 beautiful images, making it an essential reference work for everyone with an interest in bulbous plants. http://alpinegardensociety.net/sales/books/… Mediterranean/437 Cheers, Bracey San Jose CA
