From Lee Poulsen:
1. Bulbs of Nothoscordum inodorum. Lee says that since this species can
become a truly invasive menace in a temperate garden, he strongly recommends
that only gardeners in cold climates where it cannot naturalize should
consider planting this one outside. In spite of its name, it is said to be
very fragrant.
SEED:
2. Herbertia lahue amoena
3. Herbertia lahue
4. Trichopetalum plumosum (few)
5. Hesperantha latifolia (few)
6. Hesperantha pauciflora (few)
7. Hesperantha cuculata
8. Albuca angolensis
9. Bulbils of Lilium brownii (Dell's note: When I was researching this one,
I discovered that it is used to treat "yin deficiency." So, if you are
feeling a little too yang, this one is for you.)
10. "Bulbils" of Globba cathcartii (Zingiberaceae)
Thank you, Lee !!
Best wishes,
Dell
