And here is the most widely sown bulb in Northern CA -- except it's a weed! An incredibly pernicious weed, in fact -- Oxalis pes-caprae. It is beautiful, but I have to pull as much out as I can, because it will, like the gorgeous orange California poppies, happily smother any neighboring plant it can overpower. But it turns vacant lots into sunny-flowered gardens, every year, so we admire it when it blooms, EXCEPT in our own garden beds!
