1. Rhizomes of Gloxinia sylvatica
2. Bulbs of Zephyranthes verecunda rosea
3. Bulbs of Cypella peruviana
From Mary Sue Ittner:
4. bulbs of Oxalis purpurea (white) -- winter growing, long blooming, but
beware of planting in the ground in a Mediterranean climate unless you don't
care if it takes over as it expands dramatically, a lot.
5. Tritonia disticha--orange flowers in fall, summer growing, only a few;
needs to be planted soon.
6. Bulbs of Eucomis bicolor. These are bulbs started
April 2002 from Silverhill seed and still small, and need to be planted
Seed from Garry Reid (Australian Bulb Merchant) that he said I could share
with the group if I already grew it:
7. Arthropodium strictum--Winter Growing from Australia
8. Solenomelus pedunculatus--Evergreen?, think Sisyrinchium type leaves,
from Chile, yellow flowers, quick from seed
now.
