The UC Botanical Garden in Berkeley has a very large South African
collection with many bulbs. The winter growing species are now coming into
full leaf. Some are already in bloom and others should start blooming early
spring spring. Summer blooms occur thereafter.  As a bonus, you'll get to
see bulbs from all other places in the world.
