From Roy Herold:
BULBS:
1. Oxalis perdicaria var malacobolbos, ex BX183/Uli
2. Oxalis flava not pink, ex BX152/MSI
3. Oxalis hirta mauve, ex BX179/MSI, ex Vanderhoff. A different tristylous
character from the usual hirta, so both set seed if bees are around.
4. 22. Oxalis flava? (Uli 69) -- bluish gray palmate leaves, grew in
seasonally moist soil in heavy clay on the Nieuwoudville plateau, ex
BX179/MSI
5. Oxalis obtusa Old Fashioned Pink
6. Oxalis hirta 'Gothenburg' ex Odyssey
7. Oxalis hirta ex BX152/MSI
8. Oxalis melanosticta 'Ken Aslet', blooming form
9. Oxalis namaquana, flava-like
10. Oxalis obtusa MV 6341 Nieuwoudtville, ex BX179/MSI
11. Oxalis fabaefolia ex Dylan Hannon
12. Oxalis not hirta not namaquana yellow, probably a flava type, ex
BX179/MSI
13. Oxalis polyphylla heptaphylla ex Telos
From Mary Sue Ittner:
BULBS:
14. Oxalis assinia from Bill Baird, still hasn't bloomed for me - I looked
this up in the Oxalis checklist and it says that this is a synonym for
Oxalis fabaefolia. That one has distinctive leaves, but I can't find that I
took a picture to confirm what it is
15. Oxalis caprina fall blooming, purple flowers,
16. Oxalis hirta (mauve) received from Ron Vanderhoff, definitely a
different color from the pink ones I grow, really pretty, fall blooming
17. Oxalis namaquana - originally from Uli, bright yellow, although this is
from dry areas, it is found in mass in wet places in those areas so may
appreciate extra water
18. Oxalis obtusa MV 6341 Nieuwoudtville. 1.5" bright yellow. Tight,
compact plants. This form hasn't always bloomed for me, but has the last
couple of years
19. Oxalis purpurea 'Skar' originally from Bill Baird, long blooming, pink
flowers
20 Oxalis imbricate
From Arnold Trachtenberg:
