I have some bulbs that are a nice yellow and I don't know the name of them. Is there a good website that I can look at that has photos of flowering bulbs? Any suggestion would be appreciated. The photo attached is the flower I am looking for it's name.

If you mean the flower in the picture, I believe it's a Freesia. They come in not only yellow but cream, a deep red, purple and a white with purple veins. They are grown from bulbs, and there are several flowers on a stem. Maybe search Freesia on your search engine and look at images. You might be able to ascertain whether they're the same as the plant you're looking for. Brightest Blessings.

Freesia Growing in Bed - A bed of growing Freesia.

This one is a bed of yellow Freesia so you can see what they're like when they're growing. They also have an unmistakable, very strong, delicious perfume which fills the house when you have cut flowers in a vase. My favourite cut flower in fact.

This is probably Ixia. Here is a link to the Pacific Bulb Society www.pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/Ixia I think some of the best places to look is where they sell bulbs. Here are a few. http://brecks.com Van Bourgondien. Very nice stuff http://www.dutchbulbs.com/ http://www.tulipworld.com
