Can You Help Please
« on: February 07, 2008, 01:55:40 PM »
This small bulb flowered today.  Can anybody identify it - I think it looks a little like a Gagea, but to my knowledge I have never grown or collected any.

I am now fairly certain it is a Gagea.  I have always despised these as being small and identical.  This one is much larger.  From another thread it could be Gagea pratensis
