specify quantities. It is a good idea to include your snail mail address, 
too, in case I don't already have it. Availability is based on a first come, 
first served system. When you receive your seeds/bulbs you will find, 
included with them, a statement of how much money (usually $2.00/share of 
seeds or $3 -$5/share of bulbs)(cash, check, or Pay Pal to

treasurer. Postage and packaging charges are added. 

    Many of you are subscribers to this pbs elist which is free, but are 
not members of the Pacific Bulb Society which has a yearly membership 
charge. THIS BX OFFERING IS AVAILABLE ONLY TO MEMBERS of the Pacific Bulb

>From Kathleen Sayce: 

1. Seeds of Ipheion uniflorum 'Charlotte Bishop', pink 

>From Arnold Trachtenberg: 

2. Seeds of Arum palaestinum 
3. Seeds of Arum korolkowii 

>From Jerry Lehmann: 

4. Seedling tubers of Arisaema draconitum 'Green Dragon'  Collected seed 
"cluster" fall of 2010 from habitat. Placed in protected location on soil 
surface at my house over winter, cleaned and separated seeds and immediately 
sowed at the end of March 2011. 

5. Seed of Camassia 'Sacajawea'  Mine is in full sun until 3 pm. Then light 
shade. Holds foliage color well. 

6. Seed of Zigadenus nuttallii ex Riley County, Kansas 

>From Stephen Putman: 

7. Seeds of Hippeastrum stylosum 

>From Phil Andrews: 

8. Seed of Allium 'Globemaster' and similar white alliums. Both have 
identical leaf forms and flower stalk heights, so they go well together. I 
don't know if they come true from seed yet. 

>From Mary Sue Ittner: 

9. Seed of Arum purpureospathum 
10. Seed of Cyrtanthus mackenii, not sure which color form 

>From Shawn Pollard: 

11. Seeds of Manfreda erubescens.  I got the seeds for my plants from the BX 
years ago and this is the most beautiful and successful of the Manfredas in 
my Yuma garden. 

12 Seeds of Nyctaginia capitata.  This tuberous-rooted ground cover (scarlet 
muskflower or ramillete del diablo) from West Texas doesn't mind Yuma's 
summer heat one bit.  Yes, the flowers are musky, like a carob. 

13. Seeds of Amoreuxia palmatifida (Mexican yellowshow). 

14. Seeds of Amoreuxia gonzalezii (Santa Rita yellowshow). 

15. Seeds of Ascelpias albicans.  A stem-succulent relative of the tuberous 
milkweeds, this is a hard-core xerophyte with no frost tolerance that grows 
on rocky slopes from where all cold air drains away in winter.  Tarantula 
hawks love the flowers 

>From Shirley Meneice: 

16. Seeds of Bowiea volubilis 
17. Seeds of Anomatheca laxa, red, that is a Lapeirousia or some other Irid 
now. 

>From Dave Boucher: 

18. Seed of Hymenocallis astrostephana 

>From Steven Hart: 

19. Seed of Lilium formosanum 
20. Seed of Habranthus robustus 

>From Richard Hart: 

21. Seeds of Veltheimia bracteata 
22. Seed of Datura sp. "Moonflower" 

>From Fereydoun Sharifi: (NOTE:  ALL OF THESE SEEDS ARE IN VERY LIMITED 
SUPPLY!!!)

plant)

25. Seeds of Nerine humilis:  Mid season/dark pink 
26. Seeds of Nerine humilis: Late season/small flower

29. Seeds of Nerine undulata alta 

>From Dell Sherk: 

30. Seeds of Pucara leucantha (few) 
31. Seeds of Cyrtanthus, probably C. montanus or a hybrid with that 
parentage. Wide-open trumpet shaped scarlet flowers, many to a scape. 

>From Nhu Nguyen: 

SEEDS 
OP = open pollinated, W = winter growing, S = summer growing, 
32. Lewisia brachycalyx OP, W, no other species blooming at the same time, 
probably pure 
33. Lapeirousia corymbosa - OP, W, although no other Lapeirousia blooming at 
the same time, probably pure 
34. Babiana ringens - OP, W, nice red form 
35. Calochortus luteus NNBH69.1- OP, W 
36, Calochortus luteus NNBH2503 - OP, W, collected from a native patch in a 
friend's yard in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. These are supposed to 
have nice brown markings. I have some extra so I'm sharing them. 
37. Solenomelus pedunculatus - OP, W, probably pure since no other irids 
were blooming at the same time. 
38. Allium unifolium - OP, W. 
39. Tulbaghia acutiloba - cross pollinated between two forms, S 
40. Herbertia lahue - OP, S 
41. Impatiens gomphophylla - OP, S, winter dormant, tuberous. High chance of 
hybridization with other impatiens species.
