It must be "mirabilis," not "miribilis." These reported anomalies (in a list I was asked to proofread, I admit in shame) emphasize the need not to copy handwritten labels for plant names. I should have noticed the wrong gender on "Eucrosia variabile," though all I noticed was that it had been written "variable." I usually google only the names that don't seem reasonable, but from now on I will double-check all of them, since I don't know the tropical bulbs. Donors do need to supply typed, not just handwritten, names on their bulbs -- and never use autocorrect along with botany, even if you fear you can't spell in English either.
