It was  suggested that we might have  new  section on the Forum for  the family  Asparagaeae - regrettably  I'm not sure when I would have time to trawl through all the  hundreds  (977) of  existing threads to  move any  relevant threads to a new  section!   :-X
 Many plants from other families,  such as  several from  Liliaceae, are now  moved to  Asparagaceae.    Here are two links to jhelp you discover which plants  are now in Asparagaceae - you will be able to  find references to these plants, including threads devoted to them, using the  forum "search facility"

 Wikipedia says "Asparagaceae includes 114 genera with a total of ca 2900 known species.
Unless otherwise noted, the alphabetical list below on this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asparagaceae  is based on genera accepted by the World Checklist of Selected Plant Families as in the family Asparagaceae (with synonyms from the same source). "

Even if you had the time Maggi it would take so much time to do that by the time you’d finished they would just be getting ready to change all the names again.

Bellevalia densiflora, from Oron's seeds. The leaves are very long (30cm) for a so young plant.
