When looking for this plant, keep in mind that it's now included in the Moraea genus so could be listed under that name instead of Homeria. Take a look here for info and photos: http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/Homeria

Here's a list of sources of species bulbs: http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/index.php/Sources

Here in California, the Jim Duggan Flower Nursery will have Homerias available in June. Most bulb nurseries will only ship South African bulbs when they are dormant, which is in the summer.
