Wandering around the Internet today I came again to Project Gutenberg. 
Whist wandering there I found The Botanical Magazine, volumes 1 - 9

http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/bookshelf/269/

Quite charming, lovely illustrations (one per plant) and yes, there are 
geophytes from Amaryllis to Narcissus to, hmm, let's just say "others" - 
there have been name changes between then and now.

Also herbaceous perennials, a tree or two, great fun to consume an 
afternoon (or longer . . . )

If you quickly drag the cursor down to the back of each magazine there 
is an alphabetical list by Latin name with a hot link to each entry.

Have fun. I know I did.

Judy, where much of my garden is still covered with ice-crusted snow but 
bare ground is making more of an appearance.
